What happened
-------------
When .rar file is extracted using GUI by right clicking the file and selecting
"Extract Here", the process continued until the disk is full.
What I expected
---------------
Extracting the .rar file without consuming my whole disk. Actual file size
after extraction is 22-23MB.
How it got resolved
-------------------
So I installed unrar package using "sudo apt-get install unrar" and the problem
got resolved. Seems like a bug since the unrar package was not there by default
and without unrar the process consumes the whole disk.
OS details are as follows
------------------------
Description: Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS
Release: 20.04
** Affects: file-roller (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
