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. -- tar throws up error when extracting file https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/486314 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
