Sadly, I don't have time for doing this.

It seems that there isn't a good solution for solving this issue in the short term. Any other idea?

Thanks for your help Paul.

I see. In that case you might want to work with the 7z and/or unar
upstreams to make a proper shared library with a good API, stable ABI
and public headers.

Another option might be to use libarchive, if that supports the
relevant file formats:
