Xarchiver is a Desktop Environment independent archiver frontend. All common archive types are supported. RPM and DEB packages are handled without their package managers. To run it you only need GTK+2 libraries and obviously the various rar, arj and 7z for these archive types. If you want to try an experimental patch to support xz, then run the script like this: BEND_ME_OVER=kthxbai ./xarchiver.SlackBuild
