Here's an update on this effort.  plexus-archiver 4.2.2 has been
uploaded to experimental because it would cause build failures in
unstable due to API changes.  Specifically, (2) API signatures have been
removed which causes breakage for 20-odd packages.  The ratt run
detected 30 failures out of 639 packages total, but some of these are
failing for reasons other than the API changes.

I'm going to look what it would take to update those packages, but I
might use a trick that Emmanuel has used in the past, which is to
restore the removed methods.

In case people are interested, the removed methods (from
japi-compliance-checker) are:

> TarUnArchiver.execute ( File sourceFile, File destDirectory )  :  void

Cheers,
