SUMMARY
On Arch Linux, Ark cannot open 7z archives using 7-zip from
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/7-zip .
It builds a 7zz binary, which as DOC/readme.txt in 7z2201-src.tar.xz describes,
is a "Standalone version of 7-Zip console that supports all formats".
Please support using the 7zz binary to interact with 7z archives.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Have 7-zip installed which provides /usr/bin/7zz.
2. Make sure there's no /usr/bin/7z, i.e. p7zip is not installed.
3. Try to open a 7z archive.
OBSERVED RESULT
Ark showed en error.
Loading the archive ‘/path/to/archive.7z’ failed with the following error:
No suitable plugin found. Ark does not seem to support this file type.

Ark should successfully open the 7z archive.
