Debian repository

It would be nice to have a debian repository to have automatic updates on Debian. This method could also replace the PPA on Ubuntu, adding security and expanding the user base of this application.

Added a request in debian, we need a maintainer: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1079219

@tamburro92 most software on that list has been waiting for more than a decade for someone to package it. lightpad has no dependencies it would be wiser for the developers to package it themselves. It will not require more maintenance than the PPA they are currently maintaining and the deb repo will be more secure and target a higher number of distros.
