Bug Description

When extracting a file over an existing file, clicking "Replace" in the dialog that asks to confirm overwriting a file, does not replace the file.

Reproduce:
- Open any archive (I've tested zip and 7z)
- Right click a file and extract
- Edit the extracted file so you can see that it will not be replaced
- Right click and extract the file again, to the same file name
- In the dialog asking whether to replace the file, click "Replace".
- File roller confirms extraction, however the file was *not* replaced by the copy from the archive
