Package: dpkg
Severity: wishlist

Dear debian developers,

Please backport these changes
(https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=892664
https://git.dpkg.org/cgit/dpkg/dpkg.git/diff/?id=2c2f7066b) into
debian stable (bullseye) and debian oldstable (buster). The lack of
tar.zst support is critical for these releases as time goes on and
many popular CI systems only have Ubuntu builders. The lack of tar.zst
support means that for many projects providing packages for debian
distros is not possible or too difficult.

With the ease of which the backport is achievable I am politely
requesting that you include it in the mentioned distros at urnest.

Thanks
