Description Nicolas Salguero 2016-03-21 22:19:05 CET 
Hi,

When testing bug 18008, I found that "Extract to..." or "Extract here" does not work because running the command "xarchiver --extract-to <a_directory> <a_RPM_archive>" causes a segmentation fault.

When I open the same RPM with xarchiver and extract from the GUI, it succeeds.

Best regards,

Nico.

Comment 1 Nicolas Salguero 2016-03-21 22:32:25 CET 
Suggested advisory:
========================

The updated package corrects a crash when running the command "xarchiver --extract-to <a_directory> <a_RPM_archive>", which is used by "Extract to..."/"Extract here" options in pcmanfm.
========================

========================
i586:
xarchiver-0.5.4-1.1.mga5.i586.rpm

MGA5-32 on Acer D620 Xfce
No installation issues.
Downloaded numlock-2.1.2-11.mga5.i586.rpm, created a map numl and at the CLI:
$ xarchiver --extract-to numl numlock-2.1.2-11.mga5.i586.rpm 

Found maps and files in map numl, so OK
