"The utilitie unrar is not in your path" error.

Hi!

How to fix that error?
It happends both in CD Version as hd install
with Knoppix 3.3 verison 2003-11-14 but laso the version before.

It happends whenever I click a *.rar file.
Ark opens as usual but displays this error message.

Thanks,
JanMartin

For HD install, apt-get install unrar

For CD, tell Klaus to include it in the future.

Now it works.
But something is messed up in those knoppix versions.

Thanks,
JanMartin

This is what I did to fix it:
