Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Installation and upgrades on bare metal using manual commands or Ansible can be greatly simplified using deb and rpm packages. Compare for example the Pulsar bare metal instructions to redpanda.

Packages can also simplify installation using Ansible and help with better security. For example, some of the directories in the Ansible playbook should probably have more restrictive permissions but currently use the default permissions.

Describe the solution you'd like Officially supported deb packages for Pulsar broker, Bookkeeper and Zookeeper.

# command to add the official debian repository and key
apt-get install zookeeper
apt-get install bookkeeper
apt-get install pulsar-broker`

Describe alternatives you've considered

Additional context

Would makedeb be of any interested for this? It's a project I personally lead, but I think it could greatly reduce the maintenance cost of having a Debian package.
