Hi,

And thanks for checking with us (explicit Cc's welcome, by the way).

From a quick look at debian/control:

This field isn't needed for d-i.

FWIW: A single-line description is sufficient in a d-i context.


From a quick look at debian/rules, a real issue:
> override_dh_makeshlibs:
>         dh_makeshlibs -plibzstd1 -V'libzstd1 (>=1.3.5)' 
> --add-udeb=libzstd-udeb

You're passing libzstd-udeb to --add-udeb, while the actual package is
called libzstd1-udeb, so the generated shlibs file (see DEBIAN/shlibs in
your build tree) will point to a package that doesn't exist, generating
dependencies that can be satisfied for udebs using symbols from libzstd.

[I'm used to seeing a space after '>=' but apparently having no space
seems supported as well:
(sid-amd64-devel)kibi@armor:~/hack/libzstd$ grep '>=' 
/var/lib/dpkg/info/*shlibs | grep -v '>= '
/var/lib/dpkg/info/libgcrypt20:amd64.shlibs:libgcrypt 20 libgcrypt20 (>=1.8.0-0)
/var/lib/dpkg/info/libgcrypt20:amd64.shlibs:udeb: libgcrypt 20 libgcrypt20-udeb 
(>=1.8.0-0)
/var/lib/dpkg/info/libprocps6:amd64.shlibs:libprocps 6 libprocps6 (>=2:3.3.13-1)
/var/lib/dpkg/info/libprocps7:amd64.shlibs:libprocps 7 libprocps7 (>=2:3.3.15-1)
/var/lib/dpkg/info/libtasn1-6:amd64.shlibs:libtasn1 6 libtasn1-6 (>=4.7-0)
]

Other than that, the resulting udeb after a binary build looks OK to me.
