I'm not aware of such plans. Building the package is easy, though, but to get it
through the Debian mill is time-consuming and tedious, not to speak of
maintaining it (updates etc.).

If you are interested, I've created deb/ub packages some time ago:
http://repos.aisys.ch/apt/ubuntu/pool/main/f/fricas/
with the method described in
https://github.com/nilqed/fricas_docker/tree/master/fpm

Eventually it's matter of trust to get packages from non official sources, of
cocurse. On the other hand it's really no big deal to compile fricas from
sources (see the docker file, this could be rewritten to a bash file to fully
automate the whole process.

Greetings
Kurt
