Hi,
Yes, this is definitely helpful for us. I hadn't done any work on the actual blender package - I had just been talking to [email protected] in a separate thread, and he mentioned that packaging minizip-ng would unblock him, so that's what I did. (although I haven't heard from him since then). Are you planning to submit the new blender version to Debian already?

Did you make progress with updating blender? I was also looking into building blender 4.5.3. I mananged to get it to build after adding minizip-ng and updating opencolorio. https://salsa.debian.org/jljusten/minizip-ng/-/commits/4.0.10 https://salsa.debian.org/jljusten/opencolorio/-/commits/2.5.0 https://salsa.debian.org/jljusten/blender/-/commits/4.5.3 Blender did start and render one test case, but I did not test it extensively. Is any of this helpful for your goals? -Jordan
