You may see this when trying to decompress a rar file:

Too bad that file-roller does not tell you what to do (in contrast to Rhythmbox when new codecs need to be installed).
The solution is very simple, just install unrar like this:
sudo apt-get install unrar
That’s it. The Archive Manager can uncompress rared files now.
