Great. The bug seems to be fixed!
I tested the following (using a live CD of Lubuntu 12.04):
1) ctrl + alt + F2
2) sudo service lightdm stop
3) sudo add-apt-repository ppa:lubuntu-dev/lubuntu-daily
4) sudo apt-get update
5) sudo apt-get install pcmanfm
6) sudo service lightdm start
Then I dragge
Is it just about permissions?
Can anyone of you guys confirm the following successful dnd action?
1) Place an archive on your desktop (i.e. named as 'archive.tar.gz')
2) Open a terminal and cd right to the desktop
3) Type: sudo file-roller archive.tar.gz
4) Then drag and drop to the desktop

You are right, karl. I have also tested it using
lubuntu-12.04-beta2-desktop-i386.iso in virtualbox and I did not succeed.
Then I kept on trying and found another weired 'solution' that worked:
1) Start Lubuntu-12.04-beta2.iso using virtualbox (I did not test it yet on
real hardware)
2) Place
Ok. Could repoduce this on my test system which is running a
lubuntu-11.10.iso from the harddisk.
The only difference is in step 7) and 8) to regain a functional desktop:
7) Press Ctrl+Alt+F2
8a) Type: killall file-roller
8b) Press Alt+F7

I think that file-roller is not the main problem. And here is the reason
why:
I tried to reproduce the bug on a different test system. Downloaded
linuxmint-12-lxde-cd-32bit.iso and started it in virtualbox.
Linux Mint LXDE uses a combination of pcmanfm and ( instead of file-roller)
the xarchiv
As expected, the bug is still present in Lubuntu 12.04 beta1 (desktop
i386). I tested it today in live-cd mode using virtualbox.
But there is another thing that may be helpful to decide, whether pcmanfm or
file-roller are causing the problem:
when I installed Xarchiver and dragged a file from an
I also confirm this bug.
In lubuntu 11.10 my workaround to "fix" it was to install nautilus.
Then I could drag files from an archive (opened with file-roller) to a
nautilus window. But it still crashed, if I dragged the file to the
lubuntu desktop (which means pcmanfm, right?). So the reason for t
