Reality: file-roller created a folder in which the extracted files should be, of size 0, and it quickly consumed my entire partition. The size of the folder remained 0 and it was empty. When inspecting with Disk analyzer, it showed it was 20 GB (the remaining space on my disk that was filled). Note: The bug is reproducible on my system. I also have an SSD, if it might be of importance to the bug somehow.
