2 years ago I can second this, the previous (marvellous!) release 5.11 is still working as expected after upgrading Linux Mint Debian Edition 4 to 5 (buster to bullseye), but the new release cannot be installed due to lacking zstd-support in debian's dpkg. Maybe you could (if you have the time for it) prepare a debian build with default xz?
Thank you for your excellent work and sharing! Ben

2 years ago ran into this issue today. workaround from here:
#!/bin/sh
sudo apt install zstd binutils
ar x [path to bad deb]
unzstd control.tar.zst
unzstd data.tar.zst
xz control.tar
xz data.tar
ar cr [file].deb debian-binary control.tar.xz data.tar.xz
sudo dpkg -i [file].debyou have to do this twice, once for the headers and once for the image, then also dpkg the last .deb (you don't need to repack it) This worked for me (i now have appropriate res) on a fresh debian 11 install running on a 5600G (no dGPU)

The 5.11 release works fine on Debian Bullseye amd64. I have been unable to install the new 5.13.19 binaries apparently due to the use of zst compression, which I believe Debian does not support. Is there a workaround?
