Package: python3-zstandard Followup-For: Bug #1031293 X-Debbugs-Cc: b...@debian.org, gregory.sz...@gmail.com
Hi Adrian, Gregory, Reading the comment above the version check, it seems to indicate that Gregory isn't particularly enthusiastic to provide support for environments where there's a mismatch between the python-zstandard module and an unbundled system zstd library. Although it 'might work' in practice -- and even though users may be careful enough to figure out the correct place to complain to even if problems did occur -- I reckon we should default to upstream's preferences unless there are good reasons not to (and there might be; they're just not clear to me, if so). (not only could complaints cause nuisance for upstream, but divergence could, in my opinion, mean that Debian maintainers would take on more responsibility; again fine if it makes sense to do that, but it might be helpful to agree why) Thanks, James
