Hi,
I have updated the package to version 1.0.2-1 on mentors.debian.net to address previous feedback and technical blockers.
Key improvements in this version:

  *
Security: Removed all automated sudo/root escalation to comply with Debian security standards. The utility now runs with standard user permissions.
  *
Compatibility: Fixed the .deb archive compression to use XZ (standard for Debian) instead of the Ubuntu-default ZST format.
  *
Metadata: Added a proper machine-readable debian/copyright file following the DEP-5 format.
  *
Transparency: The project is still hosted at the same GitHub link for full transparency and version control: https://github.com/pro555161rblxs/zip-drain
  *
Standards: Updated Standards-Version to 4.7.3 and cleared all critical Lintian errors.

I would appreciate it if a mentor could review these changes for sponsorship.
Regards,
Armin

I have updated the package to version 1.0.3-1 on mentors.debian.net.

    continues on next files

    with trailing slash detection
  * Better multi-threading: Optimized for high-performance CPUs
  * Complete Debian packaging compliance: Added debian/source/format,
    updated copyright, and fixed all lintian warnings

The package builds a single binary:
  zip-drain - High-performance archive extraction and draining utility

Changes since the previous upload:
  zip-drain (1.0.3-1) unstable; urgency=medium
  .
    * New release with immediate deletion and validation
    * Delete files/folders immediately after extraction
    * Added validation to verify all items are removed from archive
    * Improved safety with original vs remaining file comparison
