Error installing Zig LSP server: `Error opening archive: Unrecognized archive format` about doomemacs HOT 4 CLOSED

This is simply an upstream issue. ZLS now serves its releases in tar.xz files instead of tar.gz (which is what lsp-mode is configured to look for). We'll have to wait until they either revert or commit to the change in zigtools/zls#1879, and then for lsp-mode to update to accommodate that.

In the meantime, here is a potential workaround:

;;; in $DOOMDIR/config.el
(unless (featurep :system 'windows)
  (setq lsp-zig-download-url-format "https://github.com/zigtools/zls/releases/latest/download/zls-%s-%s.tar.xz"))

I'll leave this open until it is resolved upstream (and is pulled into Doom).

@hhamud
LSP :: Decompressing /Users/user/.emacs.d/.local/etc/lsp/zig/temp.tar.gz... worked, it seems that the issue might have been transient or related to how the tar command initially interpreted the archive.

Does LSP features work?

No it does not work at all.

Seems to be taking a while for the response, so I've gone ahead and added the corrected lsp-zig-download-url-format in 7bb5df4. I'll revert it if the issue is addressed upstream.

In any case, thanks for bringing this to my attention!
