The problem is reproducible in my case, in the following way:

1. Download the truecrypt-6.3a-ubuntu-x64.tar.gz from 
http://www.truecrypt.org/downloads
2. Extract the file using file-roller (right-click and choose extract, or 
simply drag and drop onto any writeable directory).

The problem isn't with the truecrypt file, really.  One could try it on
a self-made tar.gz file and it'd still throw up the same errors.  Create
an empty file and make a tar.gz archive out of it.  Following that,
attempt to extract it.  The error window will pop up.

>From my observations, only tar.gz files are affected.
