Zero chance, I'm afraid. We use Arch on all our systems these days, and I
just keep one Ubuntu LTS installation around on an external hard drive so
that I can build and test my Faust, Pure and Pd-L2Ork/Purr-Data packages.
Between the dozens of packages I currently maintain for Arch, Ubuntu and
MacPorts, I simply don't have the time to support yet another platform; I'd
rather do some real R+D instead. ;-)

Someone else will have to step in there. I'm not sure how exactly the deb
build chain looks like upstream on Debian, but if it has debuild and
friends then chances are that the debuild/ stuff in the repo may work
without too many changes. Another idea would be to create a snap package
for pd-l2ork which would then work on all major Linux distros, but I don't
have the time to work on that right now.
