I’m looking for a means to unrar some files. Google keeps giving references to rmpforge which I’m told I ought not use. Any other ideas?
I’m running CentOS 6.
I see that I’m using the repoforge ones. I don’t think it has any dependencies (though I’m not sure of that).
However, if you go to pkgs.org and put unrar in the search box, you’ll see that the nux repo, which is the one all the cool kids use now, has it.
(There’s also 7zip which does a similar thing, but I’m not sure if it works on rar files. I cover this stuff a bit on my multimedia page http://srobb.net/dvds.html#rar
