Thanks for the patch!

I have massaged it to add some more logging and such.

I came up with the potential commit below that is currently running
through the build bots.  OK to apply if it passes tests?

Subject: [PATCH] configure,abidb: Make the libarchive python module optional
for abidb

Some distributions don't have the libarchive python module packaged.

This patch makes that module optional and enables abidb to function
without it, as it's only necessary for the support of the '--archive'
command line option of the abidb program.

        * configure.ac: Detect the libarchive python module as an optional
        dependency for the abidb program.  So far, only the git python
        module remains a hard dependency.
        * tools/abidb (main): Do not support the '--archive' command line
        option if the libarchive python module is not present.
