Bug Description
Created a fresh ubuntu 15.10 container, tried using composer to install drupal8:
--- snip ---
$ sudo apt-get install composer
$ composer create-project drupal/drupal hellodrupal 8.0.0
- Installing drupal/drupal (8.0.0)

Was considering reporting this to the composer folks, but I see that version of composer
doesn't even know its own version:
$ composer --version
Composer version @package_
Uninstalling this composer and using the dreaded "curl | php" method to install it worked around both problems,
so it looks like ubuntu's composer needs to be refreshed from upstream.
