Why is heyu not in debian?



Greetings all;

I have been useing it, or writing its functions to talk to a cm-11a 
interface to all the X10 modules for remoting and automating things about 
the house, since back in the 80's. Suffering from 2, 2T seagate failures 
in the last 2 months, the rebuild of a workiing system and all its 
backups has been slow. I *think* I still have a working CM-11a, but its 
recently come to my attention that there is now an arduino kit to emulate 
the CM-11a. That removes the lack of a computer to line power interface 
that for some unk reason, has not been available from X10 for about 20 
years now.  We can now make our own.

So I issued a 'sudo apt install heyu", only to have apt report it 
couldn't find such a critter.

Why is that?

Thanks all.

Cheers, Gene Heskett.
