v1.1.0-beta.030 - fix: salvage unrar listing output on non-zero exit so RAR archives reach the unrar decoder
🐛 The Bug

  • unrar exits non-zero on vintage archives with benign structural quirks (e.g. missing end-of-archive block) even when the listing prints in full
  • The converter treated any listing failure as not a RAR archive and fell back to unar, which fails on RAR 2.0 streams — the exact decoder the unrar integration was meant to bypass
  • Result: every legacy CBR still failed conversion despite unrar being present in the image
    🔧 The Fix
  • Salvage stdout from the rejected execFile call — Node attaches captured output to the error object
  • Route to the unrar extraction path whenever the listing has content; only an empty listing (genuine non-RAR file) falls back to unar
  • Extraction success continues to be judged by extracted-vs-listed page count, never by exit code
    ✅ Verification
  • Corrected logic tested inside the production image via Node against a failing archive: listing exit 3 salvaged, 36 of 36 pages extracted
