Thanks, confirming that extracting that archive leads to described issues. You mentioned data loss in the original description so I guess the 'directory with empty files' might not be the only trigger but at least we have a base to work on
I've reported the file-roller segfault upstream now https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/file-roller/-/issues/243 Nautilus crashing when trying to compress is a known upstream issue fixes in 46.1 which we will SRU https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/nautilus/-/commit/6ea1f9ad ** Bug watch added: gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/file-roller/-/issues #243 https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/file-roller/-/issues/243 ** Changed in: nautilus (Ubuntu) Status: New => Triaged -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2063397 Title: extracting rar archives sometime incomplete Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Extraction of rar files (v5) from the context menu ("Extract") occasionally results in one or more subfolders silently being skipped. This behavior is not systematic. Some rar archives extract properly, other ones do not. There is not any warning or error message when the problem manifests, which make it likely that the problem goes overlooked. I have effectively sustained data loss until I discovered that one of my extracted folders was much smaller than it should have been. I have unrar (non-free) and 7z installed. Applications like file-roller and arqiver appear to function properly.
