UNRAR?

Post by dan13l »

Hi all,

Can anyone point me in the direction of an unrar package? I'm trying to install an nzb client, and every one I've tried (URD and Hellanzb) depends on Unrar being present. And I can't get that installed.

Any help appreciated.

Edit: Just done some further digging, and it looks like unrar might not be available for the arm platform. Curses. Unrar-free might be, but it doesn't sound like the apps I'm installing will actually support that.

unrar-free might do the job. It can't handle volumes and the RAR 3.0 format.

Otherwise, backports.org seems to have the unfree version.

Edit: sorry, backports was wrong. It is in the non-free repo so you'll have to edit /etc/apt/sources.list and uncomment the line referring to non-free (ie. deb http://ftp.se.debian.org/debian etch non-free)
