unar-1.10.6 was released some time ago and already presented in some distributions: https://repology.org/project/unar/information https://repology.org/project/unar/versions
It seems this is nontrivial. Upstream moved development to github while the webpage still provides the old version for download. The code has been split up into two (universal detector and xadmaster). I originally was interested in this package because it was the only available free solution to unpack some archiving formats, including modern rar. However libarchive now supports those and I don't think there's that much need in this package any more. Do you have a need with unar that libarchive can't fulfil?
Well, there are some differences for the RAR archives handling, but so far it doesn't worth the effort if it is not trivial.
I took inspiration from the SlackBuild at https://slackbuilds.org/repository/14.2/system/unar/ and opened up a pull request on GitHub with a version bump. The new ebuild also contains the bash completions and a dependency on media-sound/wavpack which seems to be required.
The bug has been referenced in the following commit(s): https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/commit/?id=8fcf6dad10cd78d673bef727554ea7f2e24e3db7 commit 8fcf6dad10cd78d673bef727554ea7f2e24e3db7 Author: Robin Hallabro-Kokko <robin@hallabro.nu> AuthorDate: 2020-01-07 12:10:13 +0000 Commit: Joonas Niilola <juippis@gentoo.org> CommitDate: 2020-01-22 10:52:53 +0000 app-arch/unar: bump to 1.10.6 Bug: https://bugs.gentoo.org/702024 Package-Manager: Portage-2.3.84, Repoman-2.3.20 Signed-off-by: Robin Hallabro-Kokko <robin@hallabro.nu> Closes: https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo/pull/14274 Signed-off-by: Joonas Niilola <juippis@gentoo.org> app-arch/unar/Manifest | 2 ++ app-arch/unar/metadata.xml | 15 +++++++--- app-arch/unar/unar-1.10.6.ebuild | 60 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 3 files changed, 73 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-)
