Error -“ parsing filters is unsupported” while trying to unpack .rar file
I see that this exact same issue has been raised before
Parsing filters unsupported
but I followed what was suggested
sudo apt-get install unrar
and sudo apt-get install file-roller
but still got the same error code, so no success. Trying to unpack a rar download from archives. I can read it there but cannot unpack it. Someone there asked the OP to run this code: dpkg -l unrar unrar-free
if that is helpful, here is the response
user@zach:~$ dpkg -l unrar unrar-free
Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold
