deb packages created with certain compression algorithms are failing to upload

allenhouchins commented 2 days ago

Fleet version: 4.59.0

Web browser and operating system: Any

💥 Actual behavior

deb packages created by Debreate are failing to upload.

More info here on the crash this creates: https://fleetdm.slack.com/archives/C03EG80BM2A/p1732032709331329

🧑‍💻 Steps to reproduce

Create a deb package using Debreate using its default settings
Attempt to upload the deb package to Fleet and witness failure

🕯️ More info (optional)

There is a work around by performing the following steps:

dpkg-deb -R '/path/to/deb/' '/path/to/where/you/want/debfiles' and then repackaging it using: dpkg-deb --build -Zgzip '/path/to/debfiles'

Unfortunately I haven't validated what compression is used by default but safe to assume once that is determined, this issue could be replicated without Debreate.
