I decided to experiment a little, since this error is annoying. I downloaded the last version of file-roller, 3.3.2, in source code form, unzipped it and build it.
$ cd file-roller-3.3.2 $ ./configure $ make Then I copied the executables in src to the following locations: $ cd src $ sudo cp file-roller /usr/bin $ sudo cp file-roller-server /usr/lib/file-roller/ And now everything works as a charm. Drag & Drop is fully functional again. I know I should not install binaries this way, though this error is so annyoing, and has been unattended for so long as well, that I think that yes, it is justified. So, the fix to the problem is to pack and the distribute the last file- roller. -- 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/878993 Title: When I try to extract file by just drag and drop by mouse, everything freezes To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/file-roller/+bug/878993/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
