sudo apt-get install build-essential -y.We are going to build the latest unrar from source adapted from these instructions. Why bother? Well, newsgroup binaries tend to be in a rar format so the faster we can decompress them the better – let’s use as many cores as possible! Unrar is the program that nzbget uses to unpack and reassemble the part files – you can install this with apt-get install unrar OR build it from source as described below to take advantage of multicore PCs which all of them are nowadays. Htpcguides have already written an excellent guide on installing nzbget on debian and ubuntu systems so this tutorial has been taken from their site and modified only to run as the user and group – nobody:nogroup – which we are configuring. The last thing to say is that while many internet providers have a limited Usenet service for their customers, to take real advantage of newsgroups you will need to take out a subscription – a quick google for providers will soon have you up and running and many have a free trial period. Nzbget downloads all the part files and reassembles the file, notofying the user should anything be amiss.

It was originally designed to transmit text messages but has since proved exceedingly popular for binaries i.e.
