           Summary: Use 7z instead of unrar

            Status: UNCONFIRMED

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
