Of x-ar was wrong. My fault, if I did not add this mimetype most likely nobody
would have tried to open an .a file ;) Also I should have tested it before.

As I have not tested lha I have also removed x-lha and x-lhz now. I still would
like rar in. If required programm (from the other repo) is not installed,
xarchiver will show a message that tells you to install it. This should IMHO be
allowed.

Can you please clairfy the symlink-attack problem from comment #4 a little? My
hacking skills are too low to explain Guiseppe what you mean. Seems like he
already noticed there's something not sane, see
