----------------------+------------------------
 [https://sourceforge.net/projects/p7zip/files/p7zip/ p7zip] hasn't been
 updated for 8 years and is stuck at version 16.02. At the same time, we
 have a [https://ports.macports.org/port/7zip/details/ 7zip port] that is
 appears to be actively maintained and at version 24.09. Currently 18 ports
 depend on p7zip and zero ports depend on 7zip.

 Is is possible to deprecate p7zip and/or make it an alias for 7zip?
