I wonder what version that unrar-free is, it may not have the "stuff" needed to unpack a rar archive created by a recent version of rar.

Depending on your target system you can grab a recent version of rar from..

https://rarlab.com/download.htm

Or if you just want to decompress rar files grab the unrar executables or source from..

https://rarlabs.com/rar_add.htm

On my slackware box I just extract the source to a temporary directory, change to that directory and run "make" followed by "sudo make install" and I am good to go.
