It doesn't look like 16.04, it looks like 16.02 with patches. AFAIC distros like gentoo have well maintained and patched 16.02 in their repositories.
With 16.02->17.00, well, I wish him luck but it's bee discussed and explained why this job is futile. If it was team of people, or if the original source was platfrom neutral, but it's not, and unraveling all that thing is beyond capabilities of a person.

I don't like that source at all. You've released "17.01" version but it's far from being based on 7-Zip 17.01. It's another 16.02 with patches, nothing new really.
Forgive me if I'm wrong, but don't think I am.

I ca n’t refute you, I will update the real new version, but it will take time, but the CVE bug is more urgent, so I released a version to fix the bug, and some other updates that will not cause bugs will be updated later.
