Date:   Fri Feb 20 14:50:44 2026 +0800

    Add missing "iso" install files
    
    Again for Debian only, not Ubuntu, because of dependencies on Universe.

Author: Daniel van Vugt <daniel.van.vugt@canonical.com>

    Add new dependency: libzip

    Revert "Disable new feature 'zip' because Ubuntu lacks dependencies in main."
    
    This reverts commit af81ef6adde52e5e8c8901d110ded1521741ea99.
    
    Reintroducing the 'zip' feature for Debian at least. Ubuntu will need
    a separate branch to deal with this later.

    This reverts commit 00492dbf7c00616467243c4b5b107cc5c9dfe4ac.
    
    Turns out the same old tests still fail in Debian CI. Even though
    upstream declared them fixed years ago.
