Hi,

How have you extracted this file ? Right click and "extract here" in
nautilus ? Open the dialog and extract a file or the whole tgz in a
dir ?=20
Do you have enough empty space on your disk to extract the file ? Can
you reproduce the problem ?

Sorry for all these questions but I've just made some tests here and I
don't have any problem. The cancel button works and file-roller never
deleted a file. I'm tagging this bug as unreproducible for the moment.

Yes, sure. The problem is to get a way to reproduce this bug to fix
it ...=20
