Rar hasn't been updated since 2013 - thus the PHP/Zend APIs aren't updated and likely won't compile against 7.0.

What's a possible next step here? I'm surely not the only one using the rar package?
 [2016-02-01 16:05 UTC] willfitch@php.net 
I've assigned this to cataphract as they're the author of the PECL extension. I'll email and see if they're available to update to PHP 7.  If not, I'll take a look at it.
 [2016-03-12 20:51 UTC] hello at sebastiaanluca dot com 
I'm not that familiar with the bug reporting here, but has there been any updates regarding this issue?

Any update? This needs to be removed from the assigned person if they are not going to work on it, and be assigned to someone who will.

Perhaps reassign to Antony Dovgal?

I'd love to see this bug fixed, as it is currently preventing me from moving to 7.X...
 [2016-11-06 06:20 UTC] miles dot t dot prower at gmail dot com 
Well, seems that since it will not ever be resolved, this package should be removed so that people know that 'PHP can't do that' and to just drop php and move to Ruby on Rails or some other framework that can.
 [2016-11-16 20:50 UTC] willfitch@php.net 
I'll look at it this weekend. I don't think the maintainers are working on it any longer.
 [2016-11-20 22:20 UTC] emu dot sas at gmail dot com 
willfitch, any news?

This issue also reproduced on PHP 7.1 too.
 [2016-11-28 18:47 UTC] dlloyd at ocremix dot org 
Also eagerly awaiting any updates - nothing's changed, still need it :)

If someone else takes this over, maybe they could also do a native 7zip PHP extension... I can dream, can't I?
 [2016-11-29 00:12 UTC] miles dot t dot prower at gmail dot com 
Lol, if they did that then they wouldn't need this.

7Zip does many formats, including rar and rar5.
 [2016-12-31 02:13 UTC] yovkov at gmail dot com 
There is a guy who has already made it available for PHP 7.1

You can check here: https://github.com/esminis/php_pecl_rar/tree/PhpNg

Already tried it and it installed beautifully without any problems.
