Install-type: Apt repo

If there isn't sufficient parity data to verify the integrity of a download, SABnzbd won't even attempt a repair. Since archives have their own rudimentary validation, there's no reason why it couldn't at least be attempted. I've had several downloads that have failed to validate, yet I've extracted them without any issue.

Set the option "Only post-process validated jobs" in Config->Switches to "off".
This will attempt unpacking even when verification fails or cannot be performed at all.
Should the rar files be damaged after all, the post processing will end with a CRC error.
