Description Carsten Lohrke (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-12-15 12:18:55 UTC 
rar installes /opt/bin/unrar -> /opt/rar/bin/unrar, unrar installs /usr/bin/unrar

Having rar installed, unrar is superfluous - just the license differs. I did not try unrar-gpl, maybe it's worth a virtual/unrar.

They are still separate programs and as long as they don't overwrite eachothers files they can coexist.
