Comment:

 I think we could need an easy integration of this script into our build
 process as well, like a `make` target. Then, could you add a patch for our
 updated release procedures to this ticket, too?
 While being a bit annoying the `p7zip` situation is not that dramatic.
 There won't be many that need to go through the hassle you are describing
 in your patch. FWIW: I think you should make the comment there future
 proof saying that Debian Stretch users can install this directly from the
 repo while users with older Debian versions and/or `p7zip` < 15.14 need to
 follow the things you are outlining in the comment. After all Debian
 Stretch is supposed to get stable at the end of the year IIRC.

 I guess once this lands we need to adapt our explanation on how to verify
 the MAR files Gitian built are really the same as those we ship. :/ But
 this can be a different ticket.
