Hi Carter,

It looks like the debian/ directory you have submitted is straight from upstream
(which you have also written), and as such seems to be very lacklustre and aimed
at Ubuntu.

Currently, the packaging does not comply with Debian Policy whatsoever; I
recommend that you look at https://wiki.debian.org/Packaging for some basic
understanding in (compliant) packaging.

I also recommend maintaining packaging for Debian in a separate repo; ideally on
Salsa (Debian's GitLab instance) under the "debian" group.

If you would like, I am happy to provide a full list of problems with the
current package.

I'm also interested in getting fastfetch into Debian, so if you don't want to
try to fix the packaging, prefer if someone else maintained it in Debian, or
want a co-maintainer, I am available :)

Kind regards,
Maytham
