Probably better to list https://public-inbox.org/hosted.html
instead of its "homepage" as an example.  Also, no need for
"www.", URLs with Message-IDs are long enough as they are and
I'm unlikely to ever to want multiple IPs/hosts behind
public-inbox.org.

Great to hear.  I'm somewhat familiar with Debian packaging and
debhelper, so I can help.

Fwiw, I've been thinking about providing "make deb-pkg" and
"make bindeb-pkg" targets (identical to what Linux kernel
provides) for end users to build their own packages, too.  It
would be non-intrusive to distro packagers (no "debian/"
directory in VCS).
