-Note that the libzstd-dev package provided on Ubuntu 24.04 has a bug ([link](https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libzstd/+bug/2086543)) and the zstd static library is not built with the `-fPIC` flag. Linking to this library will result in a build failure. For example: [Issue#15935](https://github.com/intel/llvm/issues/15935).
