Public bug reported:

Environment:

Xubuntu 18.04 20180313 live CD

$ lsb_release -rd
Description:    Ubuntu Bionic Beaver (development branch)
Release:        18.04

$ apt-cache policy engrampa
engrampa:
  Installed: 1.20.0-0ubuntu1
  Candidate: 1.20.0-0ubuntu1
  Version table:
 *** 1.20.0-0ubuntu1 500
        500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic/universe amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status


Steps to reproduce:

1) Create an archive -
  a) Open Thunar to /usr/share/backgrounds .  Select all.
  b) Right-click > Create archive.  Set Filename to "abc" and Location to 
Documents
  c) Click "Create"

2) Open a Thunar window to ~/Documents

3) Open a second Thunar window to the home directory

4) Right-click+drag the "abc.tar.gz" from the Documents window to the
home directory window, and click "Extract here".


Expected results:
There should be a folder "abc" in the home directory, containing the extracted 
contents of the archive.


Actual results:
The "abc" folder is in ~/Documents.

Some investigation shows that Thunar is running this command -

engrampa --extract-to=/home/xubuntu --extract-here --force
/home/xubuntu/Documents/abc.tar.gz

Running it manually in Terminal produces the same result.
