I've tracked this down to a corrupted ~/.local/share/mime/mime.cache
file. If I rename that file, file-roller works properly.

I don't know what program generated that file. It doesn't seem to be
automatically regenerated by file-roller. I've attached a copy of my
~/.local/share/mime directory, maybe that will help track down the root
cause. (This also serves as an example of I file I couldn't open :)

Works fine here. Can you attach such an example .tar.gz which doesn't work.

Bug#721543: file-roller: Can't open .tar.gz archives

2013-09-01 Thread Peter De Wachter 
Package: file-roller
Version: 3.8.4-1
Severity: important

File-roller can't open .tar.gz and .tgz files. When I try to open "foo.tar.gz",
it will show a file list containing just "foo.tar". If I next try to open that
file, I get an message box saying "An error occured while extracting files.",
with no further information.

Oddly, tar files that are compressed differently (tar.Z, tar.bz2 and tar.xz)
open without problems.
