Bug Description

I am trying to install Qarte using qarte_5.3.0-1_all.deb.
My OS is Linux Mint LMDE 5 (so, based on Debian 11).

The installation fails with the following message:
dpkg-deb: error: the archive /home/cyrhar/Documents/Software/qarte/qarte_5.3.0-1_all.deb uses an unknown compression procd for the member control.tar.zst. Quitting.
dpkg: error during the processing of archive /home/cyrhar/Documents/Software/qarte/qarte_5.3.0-1_all.deb (--install):
 dpkg-deb --control subprocess returned error exit status 2

I think this is because I use a more recent version of dpkg of you.

Can you try with this version:
