There are lots of bugs in p7zip, for example some large zip files cannot be extract on 16.02 but can on 9.20, see https://sourceforge.net/p/p7zip/discussion/383044/ and http://bugs.debian.org/src:p7zip also https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/p7zip It seems Debian developers planing to replace p7zip-full with official 7zip package, see https://bugs.debian.org/991428 Also there is a related note in NEWS file: - Distros will want to adjust the `data/packages.match` file. Some archive managers in Ubuntu/Debian already depends on official 7zip package instead of p7zip, see arqiver for example.
