Note: a much easier and arguably better way to get this on Debian or Ubuntu would be for someone to package it in Debian…

Any plans to package it to debian of someone else to do it still stands?

I would be happy to see this packaged in Debian, but I am not myself a Debian Developer. If you'd like to start the process of getting it packaged, that would be great!

I'm also happy to make sensible changes that help packagers.

Started something on https://github.com/nyxnor/carml-deb to be contributed to whonix, but it works on any debian.

I mean, this is debian packaging, it is just not a debian.org package. So even if this is not contributed upstream (debian), it is easier for people to build their own debian package if they want.

Ah, I see. So, first off: cool!

If you want to prepare a PR for this repo at least pointing to that, I'm happy to merge it :)

...and if it helps with making apt install carml work one day, also cool :)

Thinking of doing similar to onionshare pkg https://salsa.debian.org/pkg-privacy-team/onionshare/-/tree/debian/sid/debian

https://salsa.debian.org/pkg-privacy-team/txtorcon/-/blob/master/debian/rules
