Package: 7zip
7zip binary package currently contains 4 executables and this misleads
users a little:
7z Full featured with plugin support
7zz Full featured single binary executable without plugin support
7za Supports major formats only, but smaller excutable size
7zr Only supports LZMA codec and related formats (7z, lzma, xz),
but smallest binary size
7zip uncompressed size: 8661 k
"Original" p7zip source package in Debian produces 2 binary packages:
1. p7zip (uncompressed size: 1014k) - 7zr file archiver with high
compression ratio. p7zip provides:
* /usr/bin/7zr a standalone minimal version of the 7-zip tool that
only handles 7z, LZMA and XZ archives.
* /usr/bin/p7zip a gzip-like wrapper around 7zr.
2. p7zip-full (uncompressed size: 4833k) - 7z and 7za file archivers
with high compression ratio. p7zip-full provides:
* /usr/bin/7za a stand-alone executable, handles fewer archive formats than 7z
* /usr/bin/7z Full featured executable, uses plugins to handle
archives, so it might be slightly slower than 7za but can handle more
archive formats.
Compared to the p7zip + p7zip-full , 7zip package contains one more
big executable - 7zz (size: 2489k), which doesn't provide any features
to regular users compared to 7z executable.
My suggestion is to move the big 7zz binary from 7zip package to
separate package, for example 7zip-noplugins, then most regular users
will use 7zip package and 7zip-noplugins package is only for these,
who want "special" 7zz binary.
Also it would be nice to have /usr/bin/7zip - a gzip-like wrapper
around 7zr , then 7zip package could fully replace p7zip packages.
