Hi William,

the last week was very busy and I was just too tired to answer
earlier, sorry for that.

That sounds perfect. Thanks for volunteering.

Ideally the package would be included in Debian and Ubuntu, but that
needs the whole "Javascript needs packing and proper licenses" issue
resolved first which will not be easy.

Until that happens, we have the packages on apt.postgresql.org, where
it is built for the Debian and Ubuntu distributions.

Another question is if "our" package needs adjustments now that
pgadmin4 upstream has published their own packages with a completely
different layout. (At the very least we should probably "Conflict:"
with their packages so users don't get into a mess when they have
installed both. Or maybe that's not a problem and having both works.)

The packaging repository is https://salsa.debian.org/postgresql/pgadmin4 .
I suggest you get an account there, and clone the repository to work
on. I can also get you privileges to trigger builds for
https://pgdgbuild.dus.dg-i.net/job/pgadmin4/ and the related build
jobs there.
