Error:
there is no such archive

Of course there isn't, I want to create it that way. Simply because
I need to write to a tempfile, which does not have a .7z extension,
so I cannot pass it on the command line, because 7zr will then
simply add .7z to the end, causing a potential security hole (race
condition).
