There's currently and RDEPEND on p7zip. If it's just using the `7z` binary then the dependency can be changed to the following since `7zip[symlink]` provides that executable as well: || ( >=app-arch/7zip-24.09[symlink(+)] app-arch/p7zip ) Please double check and test with app-arch/7zip[symlink] and add it as an option if everything works well. If something doesn't work, please report that as well. See also: https://bugs.gentoo.org/942397
