Failed to download wpackagist-plugin/plugin-name from dist: Could not decompress the archive, enable the PHP zip extension.

Hi,

I have a fresh install of ee (I am using vagrant for local development) and I got this message today when trying to install wordpress site using composer:

Failed to download wpackagist-plugin/plugin-name from dist: Could not decompress the archive, enable the PHP zip extension.
The php.ini used by your command-line PHP is: /etc/php/5.6/cli/php.ini
Now trying to download from source.

Has there anything changed recently in respect to zip extension? Right before I run vagrant destroy today (because of some other reason) everything was working correctly.

Thank you in advance for your help.

regards,
Przemek
