You can also do something like this:
sudo port install
https://packages.macports.org/p7zip/p7zip-16.02_1.darwin_17.x86_64.tbz2
Either way, be aware that older binaries may not be compatible with the
current versions of their dependencies. Rev-upgrade may detect this and
automatically try to rebuild from source.
