Can't Install BYOD 1.1.3 on MXAVLinux 21.3

[Boone777]

Describe the bug
Some errors during installation, I can install 1.1.0 Fine.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

There has been a bug lately in MXLinux while trying to install .deb packages by just clicking on it, so in the right click menu in MXLinux there is a new installer for .deb packages, in addition to the previous one, using both options still does not work.

Expected behavior
Normal install for Chowdsp plugins.

Hmm, so the only change between 1.1.0 and 1.1.3 that I could imagine would have caused this issue is that I changed the GitHub Actions runner that's used for building the Debian package from Ubuntu-18.04 to Ubuntu-22.04.

Frankly I don't have a great understanding of how different Linux distributions handle these sorts of changes, but I think I'd prefer to keep the builds pipeline on Ubuntu-22.04. Beyond that I'd be happy to take suggestions for how to make the Debian package compatible with more distributions.

I opened a thread on MXForum trying to find somebody who clear this up thanks for trying.

I have an answer from the MXForum it might help you:

The packages from BYOD are built on/for Ubuntu.
Ubuntu packages are now compressed with Zstd which Debian package management does not use or work with.
If this is what is causing the problem you will need packages built on/for Debian.

Debian 11 (and derivatives) needs some tweaks: https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/745467

Debian 12 is cool, new deb packages works very well.
