Thanks for your clarification. I still don't know what kind of archive and compression you tried to extract but this might be irrelevant now that I know the crash is related to the thunar-archive-plugin. After doing some research this seems to be a well known issue and a long standing bug in Xarchiver: https://sourceforge.net/p/xarchiver/bugs/27/ https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/27547 It seems someone forked Xarchiver at github.com: https://github.com/ib/xarchiver Maybe this issue is fixed already. I'm not sure about the severity but it is definitely something I would like to see fixed rather sooner than later, so I will keep the RC severity. This is also most likely the same bug as https://bugs.debian.org/802019. Thanks for reporting Regards, Markus
