Package: reprepro
Version: 5.3.1-1+deb12u1
reprepro hangs when adding one package, but it does not hang when
reprepro runs under strace. Also it does not hang with every package.
When it hangs, I see unzstd process not finishing.
I'm using 5.3.1-1+deb12u1 on a bookworm system. I have a small
directory containing:
./grub-pc_2.06-2ubuntu7.2_amd64.deb
./M
./M/conf
./M/conf/distributions
$ file grub-pc_2.06-2ubuntu7.2_amd64.deb
grub-pc_2.06-2ubuntu7.2_amd64.deb: Debian binary package (format 2.0), with
control.tar.zs, data compression zst
$ cat M/conf/distributions
Codename: cskoeln

Components: main
DebIndices: Packages Release .

[~]$ reprepro -V --ignore=extension -b M includedeb cskoeln

Created directory "M/db"
<then it hangs>
In another teminal I can see
$ pgrep -a unzst

Now I interrupt the reprepo call. After typing ^C I see
Interruption in progress, interrupt again to force-stop it (and risking
database corruption!)

The indices are not created.
When I run the same command under strace it does not hang but finished
without errors. Very strange!
$ strace -o /tmp/lll reprepro --ignore=extension -b M includedeb cskoeln

Now I install an older version of reprepo from bullseye on my bookworm machine:

Although I got an error messages from zstd, it does not hang and
everything looks fine.
