Hm... I couldn't use the unrar-free 'cause it couldn't handle any of
the archives I got (although it "saw" they were RAR files).

The official RAR, on the other hand worked like a charm on Hoary, but
on Breezy it fails complaining about something in libc. rar_static
works perfectly, so I move it to /usr/local/bin and change its name to
"rar".
