Title:
  l-m-c doesn't support future live-build3

Status in Linaro Image Tools:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When linaro upgrades from live-build3-a21 to live-build3-a34, the tar
  format will change. This causes an incompatibility as the binary-
  tar.tar.gz file has a different format.

  Specifically the root file system is now contained in
  binary/boot/filesystem.dir

  For the sake of trivia, the debs installed into the file system are
  located in binary/pool
