I confirm this bug, which is probably a duplicate of bug #878993. This bug is extremely annoying, since not only file-roller gets frozen, but the entire desktop.
The only workaround that I found was to press alt-f1 in order to get tty1, login, type "ps aux | grep file-roller" and kill the process (kill -9 pid_of_file_roller). It it curious that anyway file-roller id not killed, but anyway, everything comes responsive again. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to file-roller in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/884503 Title: file-roller crashes with drag and drop with error Extraction not performed.
