Go to http://www.rarlab.com, click on Extras under RAR and inside the 
UnRaR source at http://www.rarlab.com/rar/unrarsrc-3.3.6.tar.gz you'll find a 
file license.txt

Part of what is says there is:

  The unRAR sources may be used in any software to handle RAR
  archives without limitations free of charge, but cannot be used
  to re-create the RAR compression algorithm, which is proprietary.
  Distribution of modified unRAR sources in separate form or as a
  part of other software is permitted, provided that it is clearly
  stated in the documentation and source comments that the code may
  not be used to develop a RAR (WinRAR) compatible archiver.

The rest is worth checking too, of course, but in general it looks quite 
simple - you can use it for decompression free of charge.

[Clamav-users] libunrar.so support?

2004-02-11 Thread Joshua Megerman
It appears that someone has adapted the UnRAR 3.0 code to be a linux/unix
shared library similar to the uRarLib currently used to handle RARv2.0
archives.  Are there any plans to include support for this in libclamav
anytime soon?  I would like to used clamd/clamdscan rather than clamscan for
overhead reasons, but not supporting RARv3.0 archives is a problem...

Thanks!

Josh
