Just ran into this too -- the consul cookbook is the only thing depending on poise-archive and it causes the chef run to fail:

================================================================================
Recipe Compile Error in /tmp/kitchen/cache/cookbooks/poise-archive/libraries/default.rb
================================================================================

ArgumentError

wrong number of arguments (given 2, expected 1)
