Package: p7zip
Version: 4.30.dfsg-1
Severity: normal

Currently errors get logged to stdout, they should get printed to stderr:

,----
| # 7za a foo.7z no_such_file > /dev/null
| # echo $?
| 1
| # 7za l foo.7z

Also, please provide a quiet version which writes absolutely nothing
to stdout (and stderr) if everything is OK.  The verbose output makes
it hard to replace gzip/bzip2 in existing scripts.
