our package compression scheme has changed from xz (.pkg.tar.xz) to [zstd(.pkg.tar.zst)]
Hi, what needs to be done to build local .pkg.tar.zst packages? If I build local packages, they are still .pkg.tar.xz. Regarding "meld /etc/makepkg.conf{,.pacnew}" the makepkg.conf on my machine isn't obsolete. Do we manually change the "EXTENSION DEFAULTS" and/or something else? Kernels build in December 2019 are .pkg.tar.xz, while pacman >= 5.2 and libarchive >= 3.3.3-1 were already installed.
