Hi sebastian! sorry for that, but seems report a bug again launchpad are a
pain.. i not have luck in years and yes i used in some ways your packages
but dependences are not well calculated for Debian specific.. as example
the pdf package are in conflict! that's due the poppler library are very
different api beetween debian releases and others

The  packages made by me are specific for Debian and Devuan.. as i can
search some Debian derivates cannot use your repositories due obviously
reasons
