Package: unar
Version: 1.8.1-2

http://unarchiver.c3.cx/formats says that RAR is fully supported "Including encryption and multiple volumes. Can also extract .EXE self-extracting files using RAR."

With my version I could not extract RAR 1.3 and 5.0 archives.

* unar rar50.rar
rar50.rar: Couldn't recognize the archive format.
* unar rar13.rar
rar13.rar: RAR
Archive parsing failed! (File is not fully supported.)
No files extracted.


I got the sample files sent from rarlab.com so they are not corrupt.


#########################
Questions


* Can you please add a new colum, "Revision", in http://unarchiver.c3.cx/formats in this order: "Format, Revision, Support level, Notes"?


* Can you please also state which archives and archive revisions that are supported in each further versions of the package "unar"?

Is that where I should send my recommendation?

Hi,

Thanks for the suggestion.  Documenting which archive versions are supported sounds like a good idea.

I think you should report this to the upstream BTS, though, since we have no control over their website.

Hello David,

Could you attach the related rar 1.3 and 5 files?

In my local test I can extract that kind of files.

Remember the upstream implemented that in 1.10 version.

Please take a look in changelog from:

http://unarchiver.c3.cx/commandline

Kind regards,
