| Rar & unrar with Ubuntu 05.07.2006 |
| Yesterday I found something that was a bit tricky with ubuntu. I downloaded some stuff that was compressed in a .rar file and when I was looking for a program that was able to handle the files I found Ark and Xarchiver. Two "goo enough" tools that aparently were able to do the job. However they cann't handle the files like out-of-the-box. You need to install manually rar and unrar. After searching internet and following some solutions with unrar-free and things like that I tried something that was even easier. 1. Install Ark / Xarchiver 2. Download the latest version of RAR (now is RAR 3.60 beta 6). 3. Uncompress the file anywhere. 4. Open a Terminal and do this: cd /usr/bin cp /wherever/you/uncompressed/the/files/rar . cp /wherever/you/uncompressed/the/files/unrar . That's it! Enjoy! UPDATE!! ( 26 / 10 / 07 ) Nowadays it's much more simple than that: 1. Open a console 2. sudo apt-get rar 3. sudo apt-get unrar |
