[Bug 884503] Re: file-roller crashes with drag and drop with error Extraction not performed. You do not have the right permissions to extract archives in the folder ""

 

I confirm this bug, which is probably a duplicate of bug #878993. This
bug is extremely annoying, since not only file-roller gets frozen, but
the entire desktop.

The only workaround that I found was to press alt-f1 in order to get
tty1, login, type "ps aux | grep file-roller" and kill the process (kill
-9 pid_of_file_roller).

It it curious that anyway file-roller id not killed, but anyway,
everything comes responsive again.

Title:
  file-roller crashes with drag and drop with error Extraction not
  performed. You do not have the right permissions to extract archives
  in the folder ""

Status in “file-roller” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Lubuntu 11.10

  file-roller:
    Installed: 3.2.1-0ubuntu1
    Candidate: 3.2.1-0ubuntu1
    Version table:
   *** 3.2.1-0ubuntu1 0
          500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric-updates/main i386 Packages
          100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
       3.2.0-0ubuntu1 0
          500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ oneiric/main i386 Packages

  Expect file to be dragged to appropriate location in pcmanfm and upon
  dropping, the file is extracted from the archive into that location.

  Instead, severe crash (freeze) after dialog about lacking permissions.
