xubuntu 12.10 extract here crash

if you right click on an archive under thunar in xubuntu it crashes!!!
An easy way out is to unistall file-roller

sudo apt-get remove file-roller

and install xarchiver *

sudo apt-get install xarchiver



* which is cooler because it offers also command line . in command line mode it can be used as a no-nonsense easy alternative to all known compression formats within JUST A SINGLE command name!!!

  1. Hi,

    I had the same problem: a crashing file-roller. Your suggestion did work for me, so thanks! Just did an extract here and it worked, though it seems not to check for one parent directory. Maybe this is configurable as well? Did you encounter this?

  2. Hi , thanks for your comment!
    I don't think it is configurable but it depends on the window manager which as far as i know about xfce is not getting so deeply configurable..

    What do you mean with the phrase "not to check for one parent directory" ? Does it compress or extracts at a wrong directory? Is that what you mean ? cause if you mean that , i haven't notice anything.. like that..
