KWooty with unrar of unar

[GJElde]

When I do zypper dup, unrar is thrown out and put in unar.
Now it is true that unar does not work with KWooty, he sees it, but unpack no.
I have now installed and protected unrar.
Wanted to let this know.

See https://forums.opensuse.org/showthread.php/530044-Problem-with-rar-archives-and-packages-unrar-and-unar and https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1083834 .

unar comes with a wrapper script named unrar as an attempt to replace the non-free unrar in the distribution.
It turned out that it breaks too many things though, so the wrapper script will be split out into a separate package, still available as alternative to unrar but will not forcefully replace unrar anymore.

Cheers, Wolfgang. This explains what happens on a friend’s system. Some webapp complaining about the wrong unrar version over and over again after eacht uograde.
