I suggest to close this - looks like pyotherside made it to PureOS

Sorry for late reply - haven't received any notification regarding it by email.

Looks like the package has got new maintainer and is progressing in Debian. I presume it will then end up at PureOS as well.

Added: according to https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=912720 there is a new maintainer who should help to restore the package at Debian

OK, looks like its not maintained anymore (from the issue comments at Debian site). I'll try to bump it as well, thanks for finding the issue. I am not familiar with Debian and wasn't aware of this check.
