@vgivanovic: thanks for reporting the issue, it looks like an extension issue. While I'm neither familiar with perl nor with the .deb format, could it be that the format evolved and now also allows different compression algorithms or similar changes? Arch also switched. Maybe someone with Perl knowledge could advise how to catch all allowed variants. Fixing it in a patch seems the only viable solution, as upstream seems not in a development state.

Using ar from binutils as a replacement:
The homepage of the package could be similar to what the package installs. It states that the interesting part of the deb is its data.tar.gz section. Following wikipedia Deb_file_format article,
extracts data.tar.gz, where ar is from binutils. It is my understanding that the package also rename data.tar.gz, following the deb name. And that is it.
binutils is in the base-devel group. arch wiki states,

@feuerbiber: upstream for the patch seems to be gone, but I could find a version and included it along with the PKGBUILD.
