Hey mates,
Anyone know how I can make the unrar command a default one built into
the system (like yum or wine) so that I can run it from anywhere? In
my current state, I have to manually copy the .rar files to the rar
folder, unzip usinf ./unrar then copy back the unzipped files... is
there a way over this?
% echo $PATH
% cp unrar <one of the directories listed above>
Hope this helps!

For years I have created a $HOME/bin directory for just this case.
Add the bin directory to my PATH in .bash_profile and go from there.
Any scripts that I write and use, I put in this directory. They are
not available to different accounts.
But as others have said, get the rpm for unrar.
rar-3.5.1-1.2.fc4.rf
unrar-3.5.4-1.2.fc4.rf
