Title:
  Backport support for the -lln command-line option to unsquashfs for
  18.04

Status in squashfs-tools package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in squashfs-tools source package in Bionic:
  New

Bug description:
  The snap store review-tools is changing to compare snaps based on
  their numeric uid/gids rather than user/group names (see
  https://code.launchpad.net/~alexmurray/review-tools/+git/review-
  tools/+merge/403103 for more details).

  Currently the snap store dashboard, where the review-tools are run, is
  running Ubuntu 18.04 - which is based on squashfs-tools 4.3 - however
  support for the -lln command-line option was only added in the 4.4
  release. This change https://github.com/plougher/squashfs-
  tools/commit/a78a589a55a8524ef31ba06ea7c752b8aa8b3604 is relatively
  simple and can be backported to squashfs-tools in 18.04 with minimal
  effort.
