Looks like the creator of rarfile finally started doing updates again, added rar5.. but dropped python 2.6 and older support. May be worth looking into to see if there is anything we can benefit from:
Interesting. I don't think it's a problem to drop Python 2.6 support.
Is Python 2.7 easily available on QNAP (@clinton-hall) and Synnology (@Dr-Bean) NAS systems? Do you guys think we can drop 2.6 support for those systems?
2.7.0 was released in 2010, it's about time...
QNAP's default Python is Python 2.7 (albeit slightly older... 2.7.3) there are many options to use later Python (QPython and entware) and my qpkg uses the latest version of pyhton2.7.x found.
Syno is 2.7 as well.
Missed the notification apparently :/ SynoCommunity is at 2.7.11 and we're keeping up, so no reason to continue 2.6 support for us.
2.6 is already dropped for 1.1.0, only 2.7+!

@shypike said he will implement the new rarfile, so this can stay open :)
crap yeah, 2.7+
