the zip command is missing in freepto. I think the need to create zipfiles is common enough, so we should add it.

Also, squeeze appears not to support .xz files, despite the xz program is present. Don't know exactly how to fix it, but should be addressed.

Maybe you can replace squeeze by file-roller. Supports many formats of
compression, it's a bit bigger but also have better functionality.

Consider file-roller and zip&unzip packages

Cheers

FYI, Jessie's file-roller uses unar if it's available. AFAIK unar is the only free software implementation that supports password-protected RAR files. The Suggests: field of the file-roller's package provides a list of bonus packages that extend its feature-set.

ok, so this can be summed up in:

  1. zip must be installed
  2. consider switching to unar
  3. consider switching from squeeze to file-roller (if squeeze does not support unar)

all of these is assigned to @vinc3nt , yay!
