7-Zip is not really famous AFAIK, so perhaps "Linux port of 7-Zip, a file archiver". I think the extended description should be independant of the short description, so I would add a "This package contains a minimal version of p7zip, a Linux port of 7-Zip, a file archiver." I would change the last sentence to "A full version of p7zip, which handles more compression formats, is included in the package p7zip-full." BTW, I know that 7z is supposed to be good, but where did you get these numbers?
