verification done:

- test with file-roller (2.22.2-0ubuntu1), the file isn't extracted if the password contains an exclamation in this case "p!" however the command line util works fine.
- test with file-roller from proposed (2.22.3-0ubuntu1), after entering as the password "p!" the file is extracted, the bug is fixed, thanks.
