FS#1140 - [FAQ]Please note that not all RAR archives are supported by unar
I tried to extract a RAR v5 archive using unar that works fine when using the non-free unrar.
Here is the log (with the file name altered)
$ unar file.part1.rar
file.part1.rar: RAR 5
file.mp4 (-2144860915 B)... Failed! (Attempted to read more data than was available)
Extraction to current directory failed! (1 file failed.)
Please add in the FAQ that newer RAR archives (version 5) may not work when using unar.
I think that relates to maintainer of unar, not quite to Hyperbola GNU/Linux-libre as GNU system distribution.
Maintainers of Hyperbola package software and distribute it.
The software is free software. And majority of software is made by various different people not directly connected to Hyperbola project.
For example the issue that unar does not support certain RAR version shall be directed to unar author.
The command:
gives some clues where the software comes from:

Then you contact the developer and report what you think is appropriate.
