Does this even work with Debian?
The script
https://github.com/CrypticVerse/linux-os-updater/blob/master/linux-os-updater
tries to download a distro-specific script, but
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/CrypticVerse/linux-os-updater/refs/heads/master/os/update-debian.py
is 404 (Ubuntu is supported and a bunch of non-Debian related distros).
Anyway, I don't think Debian should ship with packages where the main
functionality relies on executing shell scripts downloaded from the master
branch of some github repository.
