archive module requires mount and root permissions

[marshall-mcmullen]

Because archive bind mounts the source paths into a directory to present a unified view of all archive formats, it requires root permissions. This causes problems for non-root use cases, and for running inside CI/CD systems where this is not permitted (e.g. bitbucket doesn't allow use of mount).

It would be good to find an alternative solution to this. Perhaps using fakeroot? Or some other use space mounting option. Or could we switch to some other tool.
