Package: rar Version: 2:5.4.0-1 Severity: serious Policy forbids executables statically linked to glibc (though other C libraries such as dietlibc are allowed).
This is also a copyright violation. Proprietary programs can generally be dynamically linked with glibc and distributed under the terms of LGPL 2.1 section 6, but a statically linked binary does not comply - there are no object files for the rest of rar, and we don't even know which version of glibc to provide source for.
