Summary: Feature request: Plugin for upstream 7-zip
Product: ark
Version: unspecified
Platform: unspecified
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: plugins
Assignee: rthoms...@gmail.com
Reporter: 2wxsy5823...@opayq.com

Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Ark currently has plugin for p7zip, but p7zip has been abandoned and the latest
version is 16.02, which is released 5 years ago.
(Some distros switched to another fork [1] though, but it seems that the fork's
17.04 version is not based on the latest code base of 7-zip.)
Recently, the developer of 7-zip, Igor Pavlov, released new versions which
support Linux.
The latest release is 21.03 beta. The source code can be found at [2]. A
precompiled binary for Linux is also available at [2].
7-zip is already in ALT Linux's repo, and there is also AUR package for Arch
Linux.
The binary is named "7zz", which is a standalone binary.
It is also possible to build 7z and 7z.so.
I hope there will be a new plugin for the upstream 7-zip.
