Public bug reported: Zig is a general-purpose programming language and toolchain for maintaining robust, optimal and reusable software. Zig is LLVM-based and provides full interoperability with C.
URL: https://ziglang.org/ License: The MIT License (Expat) Notes: A zig-defaults dependency package that provides the latest zig compiler is also being proposed. The Debian Zig Team has worked on the initial packaging of zig0.14 [1] and zig-defaults [2]. However, zig0.14 is neither in the Debian NEW queue [3] nor in the Debian archive, possibly because Debian is currently in hard freeze for Trixie. The packaging bug report [4] has no updates for a while. For Ubuntu 25.10, I would like to propose zig0.14 using the packaging from [1]. We should eventually re-synchronize with Debian, when zig is available there.
