Thanks for taking your time to report this issue and help making Ubuntu better.
Looking at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libarchive it seems that 3.1.2-11build1 was the original version available, but that 3.1.2-11ubuntu0.16.04.3 has been pushed as an update. It might be that the package you attempt to install is still pointing to the older version. This can occur if you have just recently installed your system or a package mirror is temporarily out of sync. Could you please try running `sudo apt update` to update the package lists and see if the issue persists? ** Package changed: vagrant (Ubuntu) => libarchive (Ubuntu) ** Changed in: libarchive (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete ** Tags added: unmetdeps xenial ** Summary changed: - Ubuntu 16.04 - issue with badtar package installation + Ubuntu 16.04 - issue with bsdtar package installation -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to libarchive in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1765646 Title: Ubuntu 16.04 - issue with bsdtar package installation Status in libarchive package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: apt install bsdtar fails with dependency issue on 16.04: root@czz17163-laptop:~/scripts# apt-get install bsdtar Reading package lists...
