  Description     : HTML manual pages for 7-Zip

7-Zip is a file archiver with a high compression ratio.
This package will includes detailed manual pages from upstream.


Debian 7zip package dose not have manuals because
upstream 7zip source code dose not includes manuals.

7zip-doc will packages HTML manual pages from 7-Zip compiled binary tarballs.

This package was requested by Debian bug 1146101.
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1146101

Current status of 7zip-doc package is here.
https://salsa.debian.org/yokota/7zip-doc


7zip was already packaged by Debian.
So 7zip maintainers (including me) will also maintain 7zip-doc.
