We do already build some debs for the L5 devkit and if you want to add
puremaps to our build job, you can submit a MR to add it to the yml file:

https://source.puri.sm/Librem5/deb-build-jobs

Then one of us (you can just ping me directly or reach other team
members in the community matrix rooms) can push the build button to
launch the jenkins build and the job and its artifacts would appear here:
