Notes for users

You can simply unpack PeaZip portable in the path you prefer and use it, even on the network or on removable devices as USB sticks; it will not modify the host system.
On Windows systems the setup of PeaZip installable needs to run with administrative privileges, otherwise the program will install correctly for all but the filetype associations which could not be set.
On Linux systems, if missing libraries are reported installing PeaZip or the first time you run peazip binary (you can launch it from a console for detailed feedback), please follow your package manager instruction to install them. Usually missing libraries are standard and widely available gtk/gtk related components (like libgdk_pixbuf).
While PeaZip's 64 bit packages are meant for 64 bit systems only, PeaZip's 32 bit packages can be used on 64 bit Windows or Linux systems (for Linux, omit architecture check for 32 bit installable packages or use _portable packages); 32 bit backend binaries can be freely replaced with 64 bit counterparts (if available) for performance optimization.
See documentation (and FreeDesktop_integration folder in Linux packages) for hints about integration of PeaZip in the desktop environment (Gnome, KDE, Windows): file associations, start menu, service/context menus, SendTo...
PeaZip UNACE plugin plugin is excluded from the base package and is not hosted on SourceForge because it is (royalty free) closed source software. Binaries in "standalone" UNACE plugin packages should go in peazip/res/unace/ path.
