Bug ID: 365594 Summary: Use 7z instead of unrar Product: ark Version: 16.04.3 Platform: Other URL: http://www.7-zip.org/history.txt OS: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: wishlist Priority: NOR Component: plugins Assignee: rthoms...@gmail.com Reporter: j...@vandenoever.info CC: elvis.angelac...@kdemail.net Ark uses the unfree program unrar. 7z can also open RAR files. Since version 15.12 (november 2015), it can open RARv5 files too. So Ark can drop the need for unrar and use 7z instead. Unarchiver also supports opening RAR files. It has a command-line version called unar which is .e.g. packaged by Debian. Reproducible: Always -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
