cannot update comix

hi, I'm having a little problem with comix
Currently I have installed Comix 3.6.1-1.fc6 and yum find this version available from the dries repository: 3.6.1-1.fc6.rf but when I try to update it it gives me this error:
Resolving Dependencies
--> Populating transaction set with selected packages. Please wait.
---> Package comix.noarch 0:3.6.1-1.fc6.rf set to be updated
--> Running transaction check
--> Processing Dependency: rar for package: comix
--> Finished Dependency Resolution
Error: Missing Dependency: rar is needed by package comix

Now I have unrar installed, what confuses me is that I've never before seen it asking for rar I mean it only needs to unpack the comics right? so I was wondering if this is a dependency error or if there's any way to report or check for this.

Any help will be appreciated

Thanks
Ardanhawk

is Comix like comical?

comical is very cool

yum install comical

(comical is in the livna repository)

otherwise just download a rar rpm from the dries site and install it
or get it from here http://dag.wieers.com/packages/rar/
(just chose the most recent fedora version, it will work with FC5, FC6)
