libarchive: please remove the dependency on lzmautils

Description
It seems that the dependency on lzmautils is not necessary (lzma support being provided by liblzma). Moreover lzmautils is more or less obsolete and this port blocks the installation of xz-devel.

Doesn't liblzma support both LZMA and LZMA2? When I build the liblzma library, I get in the config.log:
configure:2485: checking which encoders to build configure:2601: result: lzma1 lzma2 delta x86 powerpc ia64 arm armthumb sparc configure:2605: checking which decoders to build configure:2726: result: lzma1 lzma2 delta x86 powerpc ia64 arm armthumb sparc

As far as I can tell, liblzmadec is LZMA, liblzma is LZMA2, so it does provide additional functionality. I haven't really found a definitive answer about this though. As for file conflicts - sounds like lzmautils should be removed (if xz really does obsolete it), or else it should be modified not to conflict.
