Bug Description
I'm working on Ubuntu 18.04 x86_64 fully patched with the 5.3.0-66 kernel. The machine has file-roller 3.28.0.
I'm trying to unpack a *.deb package. I double click on the *.deb archive and it opens in file-roller. I then click the 'Extract' button and select a directory. Finally, I click 'Extract' button again (in the file picker).
file-roller only unpacks the _gpgbuilder file. It does not unpack control.tar.xz, data.tar.xz, or debian-binary.
It does not matter whether I select 0 files in file picker, or all files in file picker. file-roller only unpacks the one file.
If file-roller worked as expected, then I would expect to see _gpgbuilder, control.tar.xz, data.tar.xz, or debian-binary in the extraction directory.
The file I am trying to extract is Zoom's binary for Linux. It is available from https:/
