p7zip is no longer a dependency with 3.16.0.

See https://git.gnome.org/browse/file-roller/tree/NEWS?id=3.16.0

"version 3.15.90
---------------

New features and user visible changes:

* Use the header-bar for the progress dialog.
* Use libarchive to read/write tar.lrz, tar.lzo, zip,
and to read deb, rar and rpm. (Balló György)"

file-roller is now using libarchive to read .zip files.

Compiling without p7zip works and extracting .zip too.
This task depends upon

It's not working... Sorry I didn't thought to .7z :(

While I haven't looked much into this, if p7zip is only needed for .7z archives then I'd prefer to make it an optional dependency (similar to lrzip).

I confirm this, file-roller 3.16 is able to handle the most of archive formats with libarchive, so please move p7zip to optdepends. p7zip is needed only for opening 7z, arj, exe and encrypted zip files.
