Details

Launching mxomix in a terminal gives the following information:

WARNING: subprocess32 not available! using subprocess
WARNING: czipfile not available! using zipfile


Installing "python2-subprocess32" from community resolves one of them, could this be added as optional dependency?
czipfile is unfortunately not packaged.
This task depends upon

Reason for closing:  Not a bug
Additional comments about closing:  These are not really needed. Ask upstream to remove these warnings.

Why? What do they add?

czipfile is a more efficient solution than zipfile, the reason for it may lie in the 'c'.
subprocess32 is a backport of pyhton3's subprocess to python2.

I'm sorry that I can't give you more detailed or technical information on it.
The reason I ask for adding them as optional dependency is that mcomix checks for these tools and takes advantage of them if they are available. This would let pacman know that "python2-subprocess32" is not an unused package on my system, and that it can be removed if mcomix is removed too.

In case you worry about that there is no need to package these tools for mcomix, I agree.
However, one of them is already packaged for other reasons.

I guess, p7zip can be added too, without it mcomix can't open at least cbr files.
