As far as I know, a general agreement hasn't been reached in the
mailing list (I might be wrong). We heard different opinions from
different people. Also this mailing list was not the only place that
this topic was discussed. (Some people even said SevenZip would be
fine.)

disaster this package name will create. So far we didn't have SevenZip
in Fedora. frinika (bug #492203) will be the first application using
it. People who want to use SevenZip in the future can find it easily
with minimal search (yum search lzma).
