Subject: [PATCH 22.11] Revert "build: add libarchive to optional external dependencies"
Date: Mon, 19 Feb 2024 11:22:04 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240219112204.15483-1-ktraynor@redhat.com> (raw)

This reverts commit dec4b39b200a8c4b835f018c6061e81597e9401c.

This patch is reverting the 22.11 backport of upstream commit
22f7184e8b5f ("build: add libarchive to optional external dependencies")

Bruce highlighted [0] that this patch changes dependencies and exposes
some issues with libarchive packages, which leads to link errors.

We should not change the dependencies on already released LTS.
