Bug Description
Binary package hint: file-roller
This one is a little strange, but it is reproducible for me on my local setup. I open a multi-part rar file by double clicking the .r00 file, then I click extract. The default folder shown is the current directory, but when I click extract nothing happens - the button clicks but the dialog acts as though nothing happened. Other buttons work as expected; it's as though extract simply does nothing.
What's even stranger is the workaround I've discovered: I can then use the same dialog to change the directory (eg going to the parent folder), and then I can go back to the same folder I was in. Then the extract button works fine.

I get this as well. In fact, you don't even need to go up and down directories, just focus the directory selection panel (say, click a normal file, all of which are greyed out) and then click extract and it'll work.
I get this extracting any file that I've tried, multipart rar or no. I'm running up to date Ibex with file-roller 2.24.1.
