[Bug 1734223] Re: Update package to zsh 5.4.2 (as in Debian Buster)

[dana]

Thank you.

I can't get this to build on my Xenial system, but i looked at the
conflicts found by Merge-o-Matic (https://merges.ubuntu.com/z/zsh/), and
i think the attached patch is all that's needed to resolve them. idk how
useful that might be, but maybe it's a starting point for someone at
least...

Title:
  Update package to zsh 5.4.2 (as in Debian Buster)

Status in zsh package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  The zsh package was not updated in Artful, nor has it been updated in
  Bionic yet. As of now it is two major releases behind. Would it be
  possible to bump zsh in Bionic to 5.4.2, as currently available in
  Debian Buster (and Sid)?

  https://packages.debian.org/testing/zsh
  https://packages.debian.org/sid/zsh

  The .deb from Sid installs and runs perfectly on Xenial, as far as i
  can tell, so i'm hopeful this is a pretty trivial thing to do.

  Thanks!

  PS: Not very familiar with this whole update process — sorry if i've
  erred in any way.
