Public bug reported:
By default atool seems to look for a 7zip binary called 7z, but doing
`apt-get install p7zip` gets you a binary called 7zr.
What I did: `atool -x [7zip archive]`.
What I expected to happen: archive extracted to a dir in the current directory.
What happened: failure with the message
Can't exec "7z": No such file or directory at /usr/bin/atool line 1869.
7z: cannot execute - No such file or directory
atool: 7z ...: non-zero return-code
Adding the line:
path_7z 7zr
to /etc/atool.conf makes it work, at least for this use case.
