backtrace

file-roller crashes on Ubuntu 12.10 64bits (file-roller 3.6.1.1-0ubuntu1) in get_selection_data_from_clipboard_data (window=0x6e4300, data=0x0) at fr-window.c:4216

I can reproduce the crash with any ZIP or TAR/BZ2 archive (I think it is not related to a compression format) when doing this sequence of actions:

once an archive opened:
1/ select a file (clicking on it)
2/ copy it (ctrl-C or Editing->Copy)
3/ delete it (supp key)
4/ paste (ctrl-V)

I think the problem is that file-roller tries to paste a copied file that has been deleted.

This problem has been fixed in the development version. The fix will be available in the next major software release. Thank you for your bug report.
