Hello, I noticed there is a lack of functional stock ticker packages for
Debian (and maybe GNU/Linux in general) that I've come across one via
GitHub that is cli-based and has a good layout. You can set which stocks
to view in the config file or append them to the command. There are DEB
files provided by the author here (they work on Debian Bullseye,
Bookworm, and Sid):

It would be nice to have this packaged for Debian officially. Thank you.

Hi,

Bug is wrong, this ticker is different from the ticker that already
exists in the repository and has a different purpose. Bug for wnpp
pseudo package.
But I'll see if I can fix this here.
