Public bug reported:
file-roller 3.36.2, Copyright © 2001-2012 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
on 5.4.0-31-generic #35-Ubuntu SMP Thu May 7 20:20:34 UTC 2020 x86_64
x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
When file-roller extracts a directory to a nearly fill media it stops
with a generic message 'An error occurred while extracting files.'
During the attempt to extract the files a temporary directory was
created on the target medium (the directory is obscured by prefixing
with .fr-). When clicking close the temporary directory is not cleaned
up. And a subsequent attempt will create another temporary folder.
So instead of informing the user that the target media is full file-
roller fills the media with more 'junk'
suggested solution: #1 cleanup tmp upon failure, #2 inform user of media-full
reason.
