I'm trying to unpack a RAR archive in Trisquel 7. I assume it is the current RAR format version 5.

I'v tried both unrar-free and unar. The former reports back...

"unknown archive type, only plain RAR 2.0 supported(normal and solid archives), SFX and Volumes are NOT supported!"

...while the output of the latter is:

"Couldn't recognize the archive format."

Then I tried to install the debian Stretch package of the current version of unar (unar_1.10.1-1+b1_amd64.deb) which should be able to handle RAR v5. Using gdebi, it refused to install, stating unmet dependency: libgnustep-base1.24 (>=1.24.7)

I'm running out of ideas. How can I unpack a RAR v5 archive?
Thanks in advance for your help.

You probably need a newer version of unar. The current version says it supports RARv5.

That was my initial approach, but as described in my original post, I did not succeed in installing the current version of unar. Any hint on how to do that?

Btw, as I'm new to this forum two little off topic questions: How can I quote and how can I format text as code?

You build from source. Grabbing .debs from other distros is sure to either not work or cause problems if it does.

Perfect! Downloading und building from the source of unar 1.10 from here did the trick. Thanks a lot! :)
