Description
Something seems to be off when using the plugin under Linux. Trying to install any language pair results in the following:

It looks like it is trying to run 7-zip (as in Windows) and failing. This happens in my laptop, which runs Arch Linux, but I have tested it in virtual machines with Debian and Linux Mint and in none of the cases I have managed to get it to work. Windows, however, seems to be fine (language pairs get downloaded and installed properly).
Furthermore, I have three language pairs installed in /usr/local/share (Arch is not covered by Apertium packaging) which I expect to be detected by the plugin, but they are not.
These are the debug messages given by the plugin when running OmegaT from the terminal:
```
