Bug#417877: file-roller: Seems to hang for a while... than eventually works

[Olivier Berger]

Package: file-roller
Version: 2.14.4-2
Severity: normal

I've noticed a strange behaviour : file-roller seems to hang whenever
I've downloaded someithing (with iceweasel) and I've started to extract
contents...

There's a long while (1 minute, maybe) when nothing seems to happen, and
the app seems frozen both to me and the WM, and then eventually it will
restore, and prompt for the place to uncompress, and work nicely then...

I'm suspecting some timeout somewhere in a spawned process of some kind
trying to access "mounted" remote web folders (I have a couple distant
servers mounted in Nautilus, for ftp, ssh or webdav remote directories)

Maybe this is what was also reported in #409884, but can't tell for
sure.

Hope this helps
