I have tried to create an archive of my own to reproduce the problem. I
think I have succeeded.
Check the included archive, which contains:
- 10 folders containing 10 (empty) text files
- a zip archive containing a single file filled with some data gleaned from
/dev/random
observation:
- trying to inspect the contents with file-roller causes file-roller to crash
- extracting the file extracts only the contents of the zip archive (compare:
extraction from the CLI with rar e)
more observations:
- I had to compress from the command line (with the rar utility) as nautilus
consistently crashes if I try to compress through the context menu ("compress")
- the issue appears to match this report on reddit:

Title:
extracting rar archives sometime incomplete
Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
Extraction of rar files (v5) from the context menu ("Extract")
occasionally results in one or more subfolders silently being skipped.
This behavior is not systematic. Some rar archives extract properly,
other ones do not.
There is not any warning or error message when the problem manifests,
which make it likely that the problem goes overlooked. I have
effectively sustained data loss until I discovered that one of my
extracted folders was much smaller than it should have been.
I have unrar (non-free) and 7z installed.
Applications like file-roller and arqiver appear to function properly.
