Ark has a new plugin-based architecture in KDE 4. This means the code to handle 
archive formats had to be ported. Unfortunately, not all archive formats got 
ported to the new plugin system, in particular, the RAR and 7z plugins weren't 
ready in time for KDE 4.0. RAR support is coming back in KDE 4.1 (through 
external unrar, so luckily there's no code we can't ship inside kdeutils 
itself).
