Significant increase in size of .deb files

[etiennebacher]

I see a large increase in the size of .deb files between the August versions and the September versions. Using the links from https://github.com/kv9898/fetch-positron-daily:

• Positron-2026.08.0-109-x64.deb: 488.2 MB
• Positron-2026.09.0-6-x64.deb: 599.4 MB
• Positron-2026.09.0-57-x64.deb: 721.7 MB

Is it expected?

Thank you for the report! I've dug into this to see what we might be able to strip out and outlined some options in #15661.
