debian/package.sh clones https://github.com/samicrusader/aqomui.git -- a
rename artifact; samicrusader's fork lived at samicrusader/qomui, and this
fork lives on Forgejo. The clone fails, so the Debian packaging is unbuildable
as shipped.

Two further problems even once the URL is fixed:

  • The script builds from a fresh remote clone, not from the checkout it sits
    in, so it can never package local or branch changes.
  • control, postinst, and prerm are inherited from upstream and have not
    been reviewed since the rename.

Until this works, the README deliberately does not advertise Debian packages
(#28 removed the stale pointer to a GitHub releases tab). Fix direction: build
from the containing working tree, derive the version from that checkout, and
review the maintainer scripts.
