What happened
-------------
When .rar file is extracted using GUI by right clicking the file and selecting 
"Extract Here", the process continued until the disk is full.

What I expected
---------------
Extracting the .rar file without consuming my whole disk. Actual file size 
after extraction is 22-23MB. 


How it got resolved
-------------------
So I installed unrar package using "sudo apt-get install unrar" and the problem 
got resolved. Seems like a bug since the unrar package was not there by default 
and without unrar the process consumes the whole disk.

OS details are as follows
------------------------
Description:    Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS
Release:        20.04
