Hello Benny Pedersen!

02 May 06 16:10, you wrote to me:

 GA>>>> htick say in the log file "cannot find unpacker"

 BP> export says ?

Not used that as I took a look in the /home/kofo/fido/info/htick.info file
and saw something should be changed.
So now is there 2 lines unrar can use.

 KR>>> Did you check the Ident Strings for RAR Archives?
 KR>>> Maybe there are different for different rar-Versions.

 BP> yes just make shure you can unpack all versions of rar

 BP> emerge -av unrar

Done that
for gentoo it is 2 places of it been put
/usr/bin/unrar
/opt/rar/bin/unrar + 2 other places
I using now
unpack "/usr/bin/unrar e -y -c- -inull $a $p $f" 0 52617221
unpack "/opt/rar/bin/unrar e -y -c- -inull $a $p $f" 0 51617221
unpack "unrar e -y -c- -inull $a $p $f" 0 52617221
and it works :-)

 BP> and if you like to pack with rar

 BP> emerge -av rar

Se above :-) There was another end setup before and it was after $f"
28 numbers and ths was the error.

 KR>>> Try to unpack the archive with the syntax of your Unpack-Config.

 BP> see the trick used above :-)

Something been istalled in /usr/bin and other places yes.
