Summary and Info: Attached patch adds ability for makepkg to compress to lrzip. This flyspray is a place-holder since the current release of libarchive (v3.0.4) does not have lzrip support activated by an oversight. Tim Kientzle commited the fix yesterday: https://github.com/libarchive/libarchive/pull/28

In my test cases, makepkg works just fine compressing to lrzip (running libarchive-git from the AUR).
This task depends upon

libarchive-3.0.4 does not have lrzip support activated because it has no lrzip support... It is only on the developmental branch.
