  Description     : 7-Zip file archiver

7-Zip is a file archiver with a high compression ratio.

The main features of 7-Zip

 * High compression ratio in 7z format with LZMA and LZMA2 compression
 * Supported formats:
     * Packing / unpacking: 7z, XZ, BZIP2, GZIP, TAR, ZIP and WIM

 * For ZIP and GZIP formats, 7-Zip provides a compression ratio that is
   2-10 % better than the ratio provided by PKZip and WinZip
 * Strong AES-256 encryption in 7z and ZIP formats
 * Powerful command line version

note: "p7zip-full" package provides full-featured, but older 7-Zip archiver.
      This "7zip" package provides stand-alone style archiver only, but
      newer 7-Zip archiver.
      "7zip" package is in "non-free" section because "unRAR" code is not
      compatible with DFSG.

Current packaging state is held on https://salsa.debian.org/yokota/7zip .
