Up to now our decision was to leave "unzip" out of the bootstrap package
because it is just needed for a dozend packages (actually 9 in -CURRENT
as of today). There it is easier to depend on the "infozip" package and
unpack explicitly with %{l_prefix}/bin/unzip instead of bumping up the
"openpkg" package with one more program. OTOH with our now nearly 600
packages, we have more and more packages requiring to unpack .zip files.
So perhaps we should in the future revise our original decision and add
it... hmmmm... at least we should disable .zip file unpacking support in
%setup until we add "unzip" to the "openpkg" package.
