    Yes, that's disappointing. Thanks for pointing it out.

    I've been googling all day and not getting much help there.

    There exists an active GitHub site with a zstd-v1.5.7-win64.zip downloadable file, as well as the source code.

    I just can't figure out how to set that up so Strawberry Perl's CPAN can hook into it.

    Any thoughts greatly appreciated!

      Yep - that should do the trick.
      Copy its dll/libzstd.dll.a into the ext/zstd/lib folder, and rename it to libzstd.a.
      Then copy the dll/libzstd.dll file into your strawberry/perl/bin folder.
      Then just do step "5." from my earlier post.
      Worked for me !!

      Cheers,
      Rob
