pcompress or any way to get Rabin’s fingerprinting algorithm on Debian?

[Albretch Mueller <lbrtchx@gmail.com>]

 I think pcompress their license

 http://moinakg.github.io/pcompress/

 is compatible with Debian but for whatever reason you can't install
it from the repositories

# apt-get install pcompress

 I have been trying to install pcompress on Debian the monkey way, but
I am getting errors I can not make much sense of:
