PHPExcel does require php-xml and php-xmlwriter, but not php-zip. However, without it the following error appears with PHP 7.0.22:
Attempted to load class "ZipArchive" from the global namespace. Did you forget a "use" statement for e.g. "PHPExcel_Shared_ZipArchive" or "PhpOffice\PhpWord\Shared\ZipArchive"?
Is there a reason that the ZIP extension is not required in the library's composer.json?
