posdibly off topic, but don't confuse them with .pkg.tar.zst, which are actually arch packages that can be installed with pacman -U .pkg.tar.zst . You'll most likely know them from installing manually from the AUR.

Hey Luna, thanks for the heads up! I will keep it in mind when I see such packages.
