you might want to start with apt-get update....

Then try:
mkdir /tmp/foobar && cd /tmp/foobar
apt-get source libarchive
cd libarchive-2*
DEB_BUILDGOPTIONS="noopt nostrip debug" dpkg-buildpackage -uc -us

this should spit out .deb packages in /tmp/foobar containing non-optimized debuggage binaries.

You install them with "dpkg -i /tmp/foobar/*.deb"

if you want to inject printfs, just edit the source and rerun from the dpkg-buildpackage step.....
