Version: 130.0-1
Severity: important

If I see this right in the build log, then firefox uses an embedded copy
of zstd & brotli. The package does not depend on any of those libraries
(or libnss3). According to the build log it is compiled and about:config
shows certificate_compression_brotli,zlib,zstd which are set to false
and can be enabled. I assume that it also works if set to true but did
not verify.

Sebastian
