Package: zstd
Version: 1.3.1+dfsg-2
`zstd -t` has a bug that changes the permissions of /dev/null when run as root:
https://github.com/facebook/zstd/issues/851
With zstd 1.3.1+dfsg-2:
root at unstable:~# cd /tmp
root at unstable:/tmp# cp /etc/passwd ./
root at unstable:/tmp# zstd passwd
passwd : 39.07% ( 2004 => 783 bytes, passwd.zst)
root at unstable:/tmp# ls -l /dev/null
crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 1, 3 Nov 8 09:12 /dev/null
root at unstable:/tmp# zstd -t passwd.zst
passwd.zst : 2004 bytes
root at unstable:/tmp# ls -l /dev/null
crw-r--r-- 1 root root 1, 3 Nov 8 09:15 /dev/null
Upstream's 1.3.2 fixes this issue.
Best regards,
Ivan
