It seems that over the years I have taken over maintenance for
too many packages and I cannot really give all of them the care
that they deserve. Thus, I request an adopter for the libzstd package.

The package is currently under the maintenance of the Debian RPM
packaging team; it might be best if it remained there, since its main
functionality is related to RPM/YUM/DNF repositories.

The package description is:
 The createrepo_c tool generates the repodata directory and XML metadata that
 makes up a repository of RPM packages. This repository format is supported
 by apt-rpm, red-carpet(zen), smartpm, up2date, yast, and yum.
 .
 This package is similar to the apt-ftparchive or reprepro commands, but for
 working with RPM repositories.
