Possibly libunrar0 is nonfree in some other universe (or in ancient times?), but it is non-existent in PureOS as well as (contemporary at least) Debian.

doublecmd does not suggest a non-free package, only a non-existent one.

Package descriptions also include only bogus hints (PureOS has no suite called "non-free").

@mak Please drop our fork of doublecmd and let in the Debian package which complies fine with GNU FSDG.

When addressed, this issue should be flaged as "invalid" (not "resolved").
