Description Per Wigren 2004-07-11 15:24:21 UTC 
UNIX-port of the great 7-zip archiver. Faster and better compression than RAR and ACE while being LGPL. http://www.7-zip.org

Comment 2 Per Wigren 2004-07-11 16:10:26 UTC 
Just for fun I did "tar cf" on the kernel-2.6.7-gentoo-r8-tree and compressed that tar-file with a few programs, using their maximum compression flags:

198809600 (100%)   test.tar
44012927  (22.14%) test.tar.gz  (gzip -9)
35153986  (17.68%) test.tar.bz2 (bzip2 -9)
29652727  (14.92%) test.tar.rar (rar a -m5)
28350179  (14.26%) test.tar.7z  (7z a -mx=9)

files/7z --- 7z wrapper
Comment 6 Marien Zwart (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-09-21 02:16:14 UTC 
Why the wrapper? According to 7z's readme and my own ebuild I created because I'm too stupid to search bugzilla first, a symlink ("dosym ../lib/7z/7z usr/bin/7z") should work. And a "dodoc README TODO ChangeLog" might be nice, too. Just picking nits though, to get something back for my wasted time :)
Comment 7 Radoslaw Stachowiak (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-09-26 12:18:51 UTC 
commited into portage as ~x86.
wrapper is necessary as symlink does not work (at least at my test systems).
i have no access to amd64 platform so i didnt put it into keywords.
dodoc is done, and version is 0.91

please comment in case of problems, rather by filling separate bugs, you can add me (radek@gentoo.org) to it, as ferringb is quite busy.
