[Bug 311291] Re: unrar-free fails on all my rar-files

[Juanjo Marín]

jordanwb,

I don't think so, unrar-free only opens some rar files, though is the
only free software which is able to open rar files.

Try the freeware version of rar (sudo apt-get install unrar).
Alternativaly, you can install p7zip with the rar pluging (sudo apt-get
install p7zip-full p7zip-rar).

You can, of course, use the commercial version of rar (sudo apt-get
install rar) -but you must pay for legal use- and you can create rar
files. Remember that unrar is not a free format, so I tink is a good
idea to avoid its use.
