Thanks.

The documentation is here:
https://git.devuan.org/devuan/documentation/src/branch/master/maintainers/PackagingGuide.md

You will need to follow that. Out package builder uses git buildpackage and your
repo doesn't build with that ATM.

Ping me on #devuan-dev if you need more help.

It might be worth asking the Debian maintainer to update their tree and then you
can just import it with history.

Possibly :(
