This is a devtools change, the `makepkg.conf` supplied with pacman hasn't changed. If you want zstd on your local builds, change the `PKGEXT` as explained in the makepkg.conf manpage.
Thank you and my apologies for missing to read the man page before sending the request to the mailing list. [rocketmouse@archlinux ~]$ man makepkg.conf | grep PKGEXT -A2 PKGEXT=".pkg.tar.gz", SRCEXT=".src.tar.gz" Sets the compression used when making compiled or source packages. Valid suffixes are .tar.gz, .tar.bz2, .tar.xz, .tar.zst, .tar.lzo, .tar.lrz, .tar.lz4, .tar.lz and .tar.Z, or simply .tar to disable compression entirely. Regards, Ralf
