AFAIK the GUI is based on the Windows API, on unix it's command line only.
This can replace `p7zip`, which is now outdated and abandoned.

Comment:
The last version is from 2016, not 2007 <https://sourceforge.net/projects/p7zip/files/p7zip/16.02/>.

I already started working on this package on my private fork, I'll open a draft PR later today.

Comment:
i had tried to take a look at the source in it, seems it is quite difficult and doesnt have a straight forward makefile
you might have to have a if for every architecture as it has binary builds for 4 architectures

binary builds are not something we'd want in the repos if source is available
