I tried to reproduce the bug with other files created by me with no success, tried with zips and tars. The problem only happens with two tar.gz downloaded files which my user owns. The folder is owned by my user too with the proper write rights, nevertheless, my tests indicate that is hard to reproduce and maybe is an isolated case.
Is a local ext4 partition.
