Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: file-roller
file-roller | 2.18.0-0ubuntu1 | feisty/main Packages

Hi, stumbled on this little quirk by accident.

File Roller's Nautilus extension doesn't know how to handle a directory
path with a # in it.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create a folder on the Desktop. I used the name C# (Right click → Create folder)
2. Place an archive/compressed file in said folder
3. Open C# and right click on the compressed file → Extract here...
4. Enjoy as File Roller plants an *empty* folder called C on your desktop (regardless of the archive's contents).

Nothing to add, thank you =)

** Affects: file-roller (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: Unconfirmed

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: file-roller
+ file-roller | 2.18.0-0ubuntu1 | feisty/main Packages
