- Does the implementation of zst:chunked in Universal Blue images require additional maintenance from the zst:chunked implementation in Fedora 41 (or else, it brings added bandwidth performance “for free”) ?
- Will every Universal Blue images (Bazzite, Bluefin, Aurora, uCore, …) and channels (gts, stable, latest, …) will have zstd:chucked in the future, or only some of them due to limitations ?
- Would zst:chunked mitigate the current “major caveats using rpm-ostree” (if not all nor none, which ?) ?
I switched to stable, where I am currently, because of how big the updates were every day
See
If the latest channel updates size gets reduced (due to zstd:chuncked) I would switch back to it

No, that’s for Fedora, we’ll be compressing our images with it when bootc lands support for it.
-
Yes, all the images will have it once we implement it.
-
No, layering doesn’t change.

Understood, thanks !
Hey, will Bluefin reinstall required when Zst:chunked arrives?
No it’s all done on the github side, no action will be necessary on your part.
It seems to have been rejected on 2024-08-19 ??

Edit
Apparently, the correct phrasing should probably be “postponned”
