The intent is to validate that future security fixes still build and
test cleanly on the oldest still-supported LTS releases of the two
mainstream Linux families, so backports can be developed against the
same CI surface as the trunk:
- ubuntu-22.04: oldest GitHub Actions runner image still available
(20.04 was retired in April 2025). Mirrors the existing
ubuntu-build.yml step list.
- almalinux-8: RHEL 8 rebuild, full support until 2029. Runs in an
almalinux:8 container on ubuntu-latest because GHA has no native
runner for the Fedora/RHEL family. Pulls libzstd/xxhash/lz4 dev
headers from PowerTools + EPEL; commonmark via pip for the man
page generator.
Both jobs follow the same paths-ignore convention as the other
workflows so a workflow-only change to one file won't fan out across
the whole CI matrix.
