[Package Request] deb package

[nkxxll]

What would you like sesh to do?

It would be nice to have a release page with a .deb package for linux.
I can make a deb-package thats pretty easy. I think there could also be a GitHub action for creating a deb-package.
Github action would be 🔥

Not working yet, have have some more research to do on goreleaser.

The Debian package dh-make-golang pretty much does everything for you. It generates a ./debian directory in the source directory that seems 90% finished. Check out this webpage.

After installing a build requirement dh-golang I tried building this raw package on my cowbuilder but it failed, apparently due to a missing package "github.com/urfave/cli/v2". I know nothing about building go programs so it ends here I guess.

Thanks for this tip @mok0, I think Go Releaser will work, I just have to spend some more time on it. My first attempt failed.
