Hi Teemu,

I tried the flatpak version of puremaps on my device and then turn-to-turn
navigation worked pretty well, I think for navigation on mobile phone it's a
better option than organicmaps, and I'd like to see it landing in Debian.
Based on your work I've made some progress and have a usable package for it,
once it's in a more polished shape I will push it to salsa :)

I saw the salsa repo[1] you worked on, are you still interested in maintaining
it? Perhaps we can co-maintain it?
