According to http://www.exit1.org/dvdrip/doc/install.cipp, rar is not
mandatory.
Comment 2 Martin Holzer (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-06-24 07:49:58 UTC 
in dvdrip prefs, there's also xine and mplayer

solution a: putting rar, xine and mplayer into rdepend.

solution b: closing this bug

Furthermore, I can't add in rar, because the max version dvd::rip will support is 2.99, which isn't even in the tree.

That is strange I got dvdrip working with app-arch/rar-3.5.1. I emerged it afterwards after getting an error message in dvdrip. Since I emerged rar all works fine now.
