From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20050927 Fedora/1.0.7-2.1.fc4.nr Firefox/1.0.7 Description of problem: When I click on a folder and then right click and select "Create Archive" Nautilus dies without creating anything.. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): nautilus-2.12.1-1.1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Right click on a folder in Nautilus 2. Select "Create Archive" 3. Choose a destination (it does not seem to matter) 4. Enter name of archive to create Actual Results: Nautilus crashes. Expected Results: I should have got a nice archive of the folder. Additional info:
This seems to be dependent on the size/complexity of the archive. I have found that it works fine for small folders, but dies on larger folders. On small folders: * A dialogue box pops up with "Getting File List" and a progress bar * This is then replaced by another marking the progress. On large folders: * Nautilus dies before the "Getting File List" stage (N.B. In this case Small -> 2MB , Large -> 714MB)
Reassigning to file-roller, which is what implements the create archive function.
