Hi thomasmilo!

Yes, Sabnzbd would not be allowed in the Trisquel repositories as it requires the non-free unrar. Fortunately, this is easy to overcome. If you install python-cheetah, unar and par2 from the Trisquel repositories then you can run Sabnzbd from the python source files available from their main site. You just need to make sure that the file Sabnzbd.py is execuatble (right-click, and check the appropriate box).

Ignore the message saying that your version of unrar is not recommended. The par2 check function of Sabnzbd will still work and you can unpack your files using unarchiver - open a terminal and cd to the folder containing your archive files and unrar them with: unar [filename][extension]
