The source is available at:
http://www.rarsoft.com/download.htm
Near the bottom of the page is the linux version.
What you download is rarlnx28.sfx
Once you have it, cd to what-ever directory you downloaded it to and do:
(as root)
#> chmod 755 rarlnx28.sfx
#> ./rarlnx28.sfx
That will create a sub directory rar
#> cd rar
#> make
That will install:
/usr/local/bin/rar
/usr/local/bin/unrar
/usr/local/lib/default.sfx
And away you go!
