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 the bug seams to be related to nautilus dependencies. Maybe this information is helpful.
And this bug is still present in the latest daily build of Lubuntu 12.04 Precise Pangolin (as of Feb 17th 2012) tested as live CD in virtualbox. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to 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 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
