@dtantono - According to the Releases page of this package. This package only provides ZIP compressed archives for Windows.

Inspected manually for the ZIP file, it seems this package is released as "loose executable" ZIP binaries. It's not supported by winget.exe at the moment. We are unable to submit this package to the repository. 😞
