[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] Backport multi-threaded zstd to 4.14.x to support multi-threaded zstd compression on centos 8 (PR #2130)

[Florian Festi]

While your effort is laudable I fear you are wasting your time and I am hesitant to help with that.

As far as RPM upstream is concerned we are very unlikely to do another 4.14.x release. And even if we did a release I doubt this kind of change is eligible for that. So there is not really a place for this here in the GH project.

The discussion on what's happening in Centos 8 - and RHEL 8 - does not really belong here but I have trouble imagining this feature being back ported there. If you think this patch should go into Centos/RHL 8 proper you are better off getting approval there first. But you'd need very good arguments.

So the only kinda viable thing here is you doing this patch and having it in your own private RPM package you use on your local build system. Are you sure this is worth the effort?
