[Bug 1676337] Re: bsdtar symbol lookup error: undefined symbol: archive_read_add_passphrase in yakkety

[Jose L. VG]

Something is strange here. It seems to work on a LXD container:

$ lxc start y
$ lxc exec y bash
root at y:~# bsdtar
The program 'bsdtar' is currently not installed. You can install it by typing:
apt install bsdtar
root at y:~# apt install bsdtar
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
The following additional packages will be installed:
  libarchive-tools libarchive13
Suggested packages:
  lrzip
The following NEW packages will be installed:
  bsdtar libarchive-tools libarchive13
...
root at y:~# bsdtar
bsdtar: Must specify one of -c, -r, -t, -u, -x

Title:
  bsdtar symbol lookup error: undefined symbol:
  archive_read_add_passphrase in yakkety

Status in libarchive package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  bsdtar fails on yakkety. It was discovered while using vagrant, which
  could not unpack images due to this issues. The workaround was to use
  tar instead (by changing bsdtar into a link to tar), but bsdtar is
  still broken.

  
  $ bsdtar
  bsdtar: symbol lookup error: bsdtar: undefined symbol: archive_read_add_passphrase
