As discussed in #1548 the debian folder and related helper scripts are removed.
Currently they are conserved in a separate branch https://github.com/bit-team/backintime/tree/fix/1548_separate_debian_ppa . There is a new script in that branch temporary cloning the latest BIT repo to use it for deb-build. Myself I will also make a backup of that branch in my private archive in case the branch get lost.
The idea was to make the debian folder and the related PPA living in its own repository. Because the intention was to reduce maintenance burden and spare resources of the upstream project, I suggest not to create this repo in
bit-team. Otherwise users would think that thebit-teammaintain the PPA and answer PPA related support questions.Close #1548
