Bug Description
Binary package hint: file-roller
$ lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 7.10
Release: 7.10
$ apt-cache policy file-roller
file-roller:
Installed: 2.20.1-0ubuntu1

I opened a large (500MB+) tar.gz archive from Nautilus. I then tried to remove some files from the archive. File-roller started processing the archive but after a while it crashed without any error notification. The archive itself was destroyed in the process.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. However, your crash report is either missing or challenging to deal with as a ".crash" file. Please follow these instuctions to have apport report a new bug about your crash that can be dealt with by the automatic retracer.
If you are running the Ubuntu Stable Release you might need to enable apport in /etc/default/apport and restart.
If you are using Ubuntu with the Gnome desktop environment - launch nautilus and navigate to your /var/crash directory and double click on the crash report you wish to submit.
I'm closing this bug report since the process outlined above will automatically open a new bug report which can then dealt with more efficiently. Thanks in advance for your cooperation and understanding.
