Yes, I'm not happy at all about how this was pushed from the Ubuntu side. But it's been looking like there's not many options here. :( See, last item on: <https://lists.debian.org/debian-dpkg/2022/07/msg00006.html> So I'm still not certain how this will be added, but certainly before the Debian freeze. I'm though not planning on adding zstd support for source packages. Thanks, Guillem
