Hi. On a system with unrar-free installed instead of unrar-nonfree, nzbget fails
to decompress rar files because it appends -y to the invocation, which unrar-free
does not recognize.

Actually, unrar-free recognizes -y. You should give the whole call that
fails for you. Most probably it is not -y that is the culprit.
