[gentoo-user] p7zip-4.65-r1 considered obnoxious

For some reason, the latest x86 stable p7zip wants to force me to remove
'odbc' from wxGTK.  This seems wrong, and I'm masking it out for the moment,
but I'm wondering what justification there is.

Well, you could check the ChangeLog in app-arch/p7zip directory for
yourself, but since I've already done it just look at bug #267698.

room for Unicode.

Standards are SO wonderful -- there are so many to choose from.

Yet another case of different packages bundled into one ;-p
When looking at the rather complex ebuild, I'd claim that 
upstream is not well-designed (so distros have to do things
which naturally would be upstream's job) .... ;-o
