Have you managed to make much progress?

I fiddled with the packaging and got it to build and trying to run the
autopkgtests with 2021.4.0-1

What'd help me is to have a package I could build locally and test
numba against. If you got it working could you commit what you have to
a salsa branch and let me know where it is?

Thanks,
Diane
