[Solved]Unraring borken-up rar files

Some rar files are broken up to smaller pieces for easier transfer...
But I use KDE(mod) and I can't unrar it with Ark in such way that this would work...
And i'm unable to find winrar in repos, and I will consider compiling it and using it as last ditch attempt.
Any idea how could it be done?

winrar in the repos? Doesn't the 'WIN' in the name tip you off? tongue

Seriously - you need unrar. It's in the extra repo.

Re: [Solved]Unraring borken-up rar files

unrar x /path/to/first/rar.rar

You'll need http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=20760 first

No, you just need unrar, from the extra repo.

I use unrar to unpack split rar archives. Heed the truth spoken by tomk.

Well they do have a Linux version available on the winrar site. So I thought that it might be in AUR...
Anyway. thanks for the help will see if any of your suggestions will work.
Then I'll mark it solved.

Which is named rar and not winrar for quite obvious reasons.
