Hi all,
I intend to remove minizip from the zlib package and replace it with a more
maintained fork [1][2]. To preserve backwards compatibility and ease the
transition on maintainers of dependent packages, the idea is to provide
minizip-compat and minizip-compat-devel packages in the zlib minizip
package first.
Therefore, I would like to ask all maintainers of the packages depending on
minizip and/or minizip-devel to update their dependencies to minizip-compat
and minizip-compat-devel respectively.
For now this is just a "cosmetic" change without any breakages. However,
when all related packages will require minizip-compat I will build the new
minizip package with a soname bump.
Please keep in mind that the minizip-compat package is just a temporary
solution to give us some time and should be considered deprecated as soon
as I build the new minizip package.
Finally, here's a list of related packages:

mingw-zfstream
