Dear Maintainer,
Pretty much as per the description: If I select an archive and
"extract here"
then attempt to cancel the extraction, the desktop crashes and drops
me back
to text console.
I'm not actually sure where to direct this report, the problem likely
lies
elsewhere and Xarchiver is just the trigger. My system is Debian
Jessie amd64
and I am running Xfce through startx. .xsession-errors follows:
[...]
Hello,
do you mean by "extract here" that you use Thunar or another file
manager to extract the archive by right-clicking on it? What happens if
you try to extract the same archive within Xarchiver? What kind of
archive is that? Is this crash reproducible and can you describe the
steps to reproduce it?
Thanks
Markus
Apologies, I didn't realize there was significant difference between
running Xarchiver and extracting, versus using the Extract Here/To
option in Thunar. But apparently the latter pops up a progress box and
that's the one that crashes, whereas the former indicates progress in
the main window, and it's safe to cancel that.
So it's probably a bug in thunar-archive-plugin, maybe, I'm worried
about how it crashes the desktop.
