Great news indeed! I'm impressed by your learning speed :)

I find Debian packaging an awesome way to learn things about programming
languages and build systems. I usually tinker with bio- and
cheminformatics packages and have to deal with stuff from Fortran to
Gradle every day :)

I don't think the package installs in the correct directories yet so I will look into that by digging into the documentation and refactor some files under debian which seem to be incomplete (such as copyright) and look into running lintian to ensure policy satisfactions.

Sure. Just ping me when you feel the packages are more or less ready,
I'll review them.

Best wishes,
Andrius
