Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: file-roller

When creating a 7z archive using file-roller, the temporary .7z.tmp file
is created in the source directory, instead of the target directory as
with other formats like .tar.gz.

This is problematic when the source and target directories are on
different partitions. The source may not have enough free space and in
any case this results in extra copying. I imagine it would be even more
annoying with a network share.

7z/7za from the command line does not have this problem.
