Hi all,

Please CC me as I'm not following the list per-se (due to traffic
constraints and just inability to manage information flow.)

Does anybody know why unrar-free is till in Debian repo. when we have
unar which does the same or more (support for rarv5 among others) . I
do get the idea that we should have alternatives for any application
or is there something more that I don't know ?
