Andres, lrzip is in universe so Ubuntu can't build-depend on it unless
we get an Main Inclusion Request approved for lrzip first. Since I see
that you've done the last several libarchive uploads in Debian, do you
think it would be better to…

1. drop the new build-depends
2. use some kind of substitution magic like http://raphaelhertzog.com/2010/09/27/different-dependencies-between-debian-and-ubuntu-but-common-source-package/ It's not clear from the comments if that will work for build-depends or not.
3. or try to get lrzip into main: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MainInclusionProcess
