file-roller changes

[Rahul Sundaram]

Hi

Unar got approved recently

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=953384

It is a multi-format extractor but the key part is that it has support for
RARv3 format and is a replacement for the non-free unrar (in RPM Fusion).
unar and lsar are just command line tools but file-roller does support it
since 3.6.  Once unar gets built, I intend to push the packages changes in
file-roller (BR on json-glib-devel and requires on unar) for Rawhide and
Fedora 19.  I have already tested it with a variety of RAR files and it
works fine.

If anyone has any objections, let me know.  Thanks

Rahul

File Roller changes have been built for Rawhide and pushed a update for 
Fedora 19 as well
