Squeeze 0.1.0 does not support arj archives, so the makedepends on unarj is incorrect.

The same is true for p7zip.

Squeeze runtime dependencies are the following:

- GNU tar (optional, for tar support)
- gzip, bzip, lzop and compress (for compressed files and compressed tar archives)
- (un)zip (for zip support)
- (un)rar (for rar support)

Newer versions of squeeze will probably support more back-end archivers, but all these 'dependencies' are purely optional, and squeeze will work without them, it will just have less functionality.
This task depends upon
