Not sure how you build your .deb, but I've created a package, for later inclusion into Debian officially. Uubuntu, Raspbian, Devuan will later get a copy for free (syncing automatically from Debain):

Thank you very much, I feel honoured!

I'm currently making a deb using CPack (from CMake suite), but I'd love to redirect users to some Debian repository. Is that possible already (I mean adding an entry to sources.list and installing using apt)?

@ayoy are you aware of https://github.com/andryblack/fontbuilder ? however both of you lack support for vga rom font format, which is limited by hardware but would be useful to have for tools like "setfont". the format is pretty easy. here's some example fonts for you to figure the format: https://github.com/alexmyczko/ree/tree/master/fnt
