Hi Luca, I hope this finds you well.

I *really* appreciate you submitting this as a Stable Release Update for Ubuntu. I see you're a Debian Developer and have already submitted the appropriate paperwork for a Debian Stable update; thank you very much for your work on that as well.

As a fellow Debian Developer, I have a baseline level of trust in your uploads. That being said, the changes are minimal and clean, and you appropriately attached the bug report to the changelog entry. Simply speaking regarding packaging, you hit the nail on the head (which is what I would expect, of course ;) ).

I'm sure you're aware: the Ubuntu Stable Release Updates Team reserves the right to accept or reject this upload, based on the contents of the upload and your bug report. Fortunately, unlike Debian, you're able to edit your report to include additional information.

I would highly suggest expanding on any regression potential. Could a regression in the underlying libzstd library negatively affect existing users? How would those regressions present themselves? Try to be overly verbose. (I attended a talk at the Ubuntu Summit regarding SRUs, and one of the major points was, "we usually reject uploads with a Regression Potential of "very minimal." Not my decision, just be aware. :) )

Thanks again for your stellar work!
