This looks like it's due to this patch in cramjam: https://salsa.debian.org/python-team/packages/python-cramjam/-/blob/master/debian/patches/drop-cramjam-unsupported?ref_type=heads which removes gzip support entirely. The fastparquet package could change compression.py to only conditionally include gzip support based on whether cramjam.gzip is present. However, fastparquet appears to actually use gzip as the default compression algorithm in a few different places, so perhaps someone with a better understanding of the parquet ecosystem can think through the implications of such a change better than i can. --dkg
