Public bug reported:

The lzma file can be accessed here:
https://kwafoo.coe.neu.edu/~fangq/share/temp/mat.lzma

This file was created using the public domain lzma C library written by
Igor Pavlov. It can be decompressed on Ubuntu 20.04 using `lzma -d`,
based on LZMA SDK 9.22, but on either Ubuntu 18.04 and 22.04, where lzma
is built based on liblzma, it gives a "Compressed data is corrupted"
error.


here is the log on Ubuntu 20.04 - where LZMA SDK based lzma works

```
fangq@ubuntu20_04:~$ lzma --version
LZMA command line tool 9.22
LZMA SDK 9.22

fangq@ubuntu20_04:~$ lzma -v -d mat.lzma
mat.lzma:        21.83% -- replaced with mat
```

however, on Ubuntu 22.04, lzma -d does not work (same for 18.04)
```
fangq@ubuntu18_04:~$ lzma --version
xz (XZ Utils) 5.2.5
liblzma 5.2.5

fangq@ubuntu22_04$ lzma -v -d mat.lzma
mat.lzma (1/1)
 99.9 %   1,500.9 KiB / 1,920.0 KiB = 0.782                                    
lzma: mat.lzma: Compressed data is corrupt
 99.9 %   1,500.9 KiB / 1,920.0 KiB = 0.782   
```

Because of this, I also noticed that the official lzma module of Python
fails to decompress this file. I want to add that using `lzma` or `lzma-
purejs` npm module, node.js script can correctly decompress this file.
