fix(packaging): point the packaged systemd unit at /usr/bin/punktfunk-host
scripts/punktfunk-host.service is dev-oriented — its ExecStart references the
source tree (%h/punktfunk/target/release/punktfunk-host). When the deb/rpm ship
it to /usr/lib/systemd/user, a fresh install with no hand-rolled unit would try
to run a binary that isn't there. Rewrite the ExecStart to the installed
/usr/bin/punktfunk-host during packaging (sed in build-deb.sh + the spec); the
source unit stays as-is for from-source dev. Hosts with a custom ~/.config unit
(which shadows the packaged one) are unaffected.

punktfunk-host — Debian/Ubuntu package (apt)

punktfunk-host is published as a .deb to Gitea's Debian package registry in the public unom org, so the Ubuntu hosts update with plain apt. CI (.gitea/workflows/deb.yml) builds and publishes on every push to main (a rolling 0.0.1~ciN.<sha> build) and on v* tags (a clean X.Y.Z).

Package layout mirrors the Fedora RPM (../rpm/punktfunk.spec): the host binary, the /dev/uinput udev rule, the systemd user unit, headless session helpers, the example config, and the OpenAPI doc. Runtime Depends are computed by dpkg-shlibdeps from the binary itself (built in the Ubuntu 26.04 rust-ci image, so the lib soname package names match the target). The NVIDIA driver (libnvidia-encode / libEGL_nvidia / libcuda) is not a dependency — it's installed out of band, like on the RPM side.

Install on a host (one-time)

The registry is public, so no apt auth is needed — just trust the repo's signing key:

sudo install -d -m 0755 /etc/apt/keyrings
curl -fsSL https://git.unom.io/api/packages/unom/debian/repository.key \
  | sudo tee /etc/apt/keyrings/punktfunk.asc >/dev/null

echo "deb [signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/punktfunk.asc] https://git.unom.io/api/packages/unom/debian stable main" \
  | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/punktfunk.list

sudo apt update
sudo apt install punktfunk-host

Then, as the desktop user:

sudo usermod -aG input "$USER"          # virtual gamepads (re-login to take effect)
mkdir -p ~/.config/punktfunk
cp /usr/share/punktfunk-host/host.env.example ~/.config/punktfunk/host.env   # then edit
systemctl --user enable --now punktfunk-host

Updates

sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade        # picks up the newest published build
systemctl --user restart punktfunk-host    # if the unit was already running

Build a .deb locally

VERSION=0.0.1 bash packaging/debian/build-deb.sh   # -> dist/punktfunk-host_0.0.1_amd64.deb

Needs dpkg-dev (dpkg-shlibdeps, dpkg-deb). It builds the release binary first if missing. Build it in the rust-ci image (or on an Ubuntu 26.04 box) so the resolved Depends match the hosts; building on a GPU box is fine — the NVIDIA driver lib is filtered out either way.
