Oh, I didn't really notice how your repoquery looks like before.
Libarchive is ok, but there are others:

>repoquery --whatrequires --alldeps lzma lzma-libs lzma-devel --enablerepo=rawhide
rpm-build-0:4.7.1-6.fc12.x86_64
rpm-build-0:4.8.0-9.fc13.x86_64
man-0:1.6f-25.fc12.x86_64
autoarchive-0:0.1.2-2.fc12.noarch
rpm-build-0:4.7.2-1.fc12.x86_64
man-0:1.6f-22.fc12.x86_64
man-0:1.6f-26.fc13.x86_64
man-0:1.6f-24.fc12.x86_64
lzma-libs-0:4.32.7-3.fc12.x86_64
lzma-0:4.32.7-3.fc12.x86_64
lzma-libs-0:4.32.7-3.fc12.i686
lzma-devel-0:4.32.7-3.fc12.x86_64
lzma-devel-0:4.32.7-3.fc12.i686

...which need to be sorted out.

CC'ing autoarchive, man and rpm maintainers:

Ivana, Panu, Fabian: are your packages able to use xz instead?
(I guess in case of rpm this is just a relict, right?)

In all cases the lzma dependency is hardcoded, can hopefully be just removed.

If yes, I can retire lzma as soon as we branch F13.

In fact libarchive doesn't require lzma-libs any more in F12 and F13.
For F11:
repoquery --whatrequires libarchive.so.2
PackageKit-glib-0:0.4.9-1.fc11.i586
libarchive-0:2.6.2-1.fc11.i586
kdeutils-6:4.2.2-4.fc11.i586
PackageKit-glib-0:0.4.6-8.fc11.i586
libarchive-devel-0:2.6.2-1.fc11.i586
Updating libarchive to the F12 only affects a few stuffs(soname unchanged).

Hi  Chen,

 I  realized  from  "http://tukaani.org/xz/";    the  core  of  the  xz  utils
 compression  code  is  based  on  LZMA  SDK  <http://7-zip.org/sdk.html>,  but
 it  has  been  modified  quite  a  lot  to  be  suitable  for  XZ  Utils.
 So  I  think  we  should  ship  lzma  sdk  for  fedora  in  parallel  with  xz 
 utils
 and  p7zip.  Since  xz  utils  are  the  successor  to  lzma  utils,  maybe  
lzma
 utils  can  be  safely  retired  in  fedora.

Retiring  lzma  (completely)  is  a  long-term  plan,  yes  (I'm  the  
maintainer
of  it).  Not  sure  about  the  right  time  --  F14?

I'll  talk  to  the  libarchive  maintainer  --  any  other  objections  against
the  plan  to  retire  lzma  for  F14?
