Description Christian González 2013-06-06 14:18:31 UTC
When extracting per drag/drop to a network share, ark instead (without asking!) extracts to $HOME.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. open any .tar.gz archive with ark, e.g. http://ftp.drupal.org/files/projects/services-7.x-3.4.tar.gz
2. open any ftp:// directory you have write access to with dolphin
3. drag the "services" directory onto the opened ftp folder in dolphin
Actual Results:  
the directory and files are silently extracted into your $HOME dirctory: ~/services/*

Expected Results:  
should transparently extract to ftp://, OR, at least, tell me that this is not possible (yet).

I came across it as I extracted it  a second time, as apparently the files weren't there, and ark asked me to "overwrite" the old ones - so I began searching where it had extracted them.
