Extended attributes are not necessary for pacman to work. Extended
attributes may not even be supported by the file system to which we
extract the files.
And worst of all: pacman cannot handle extended attributes, but simply
stops extracting files when it encounters an extended attribute.
This is particularly nasty when creating packages on a system configured
to cache, say, file integrity information about .exe files in extended
attributes, as the created packages will fail to install any .exe files.
The fix is very easy: simply pass the -no-xattrs option to bsdtar.
