Since tar is a Base package it doesn't require lzip (which would
effectively make it a Base install). You have to add lzip to
BUILD_REQUIRES or switch to the GZip archive.

Hi Achim,
this is an upstream source package.
IMHO cygport should pull tar and all the decompressor that
is supposed to manage.
$ grep SRC_URI NEWS

* SRC_URI supports .tar.lz archives.

* SRC_URI accepts .tar.lzo archives.

Yeah, perhaps lzip should be a dependency of cygport.
For the moment, I've applied a tweak to scallywag to ensure lzip gets
installed.
