PAR2 and UNRAR for Drobo-FS

Big thanks to Jesper Noehr (jespern) on the Drobo Space forums for cross-compiling unrar and par2 for the Drobo-FS. These binaries are used for SABnzbd to ensure the integrity and extract downloads.

You can get the binaries here:
https://bitbucket.org/jespern/unrar-drobofs/downloads/unrar.tgz
https://bitbucket.org/jespern/par2-drobofs/downloads/par2.tgz

Great work Jesper!

For those looking to get SABnzbd and other related programs running on the Drobo-FS, no sweat, you just need to get Python from Drobo Ports. Drobo Ports is a great site for getting the latest complied binaries for your Drobo and learning how to cross compile yourself.

I would love it see a guide on setting up a Scratchbox2 environment for compiling Drobo-FS apps.
