DESCRIPTION

    This distribution contains the logic for finding existing libarchive
    installs, and building new ones. If you do not care much about the
    version of libarchive that you use, and libarchive is not an optional
    requirement, then you are probably more interested in using
    Alien::Libarchive.

    Where Alien::Libarchive::Installer is useful is when you have specific
    version requirements (say you require 3.0.x but 2.7.x will not do), but
    would still like to use the system libarchive if it is available.

CLASS METHODS

    Class methods can be executed without creating an instance of
    Alien::libarchive::Installer, and generally used to query status of
    libarchive availability (either via the system or the internet).
    Methods that discover a system libarchive or build a one from source
    code on the Internet will generally return an instance of
    Alien::Libarchive::Installer which can be queried to retrieve the
