Hi,
Having a custom VM seems like a high maintenance way of doing this. For
another project, we're using Azure Pipelines to generate an apt package
repo directly from the CI pipeline. There are pipeline actions for
doing all of the required steps.
I'm already using Azure Pipelines for Linux and Windows CI of libobjc2,
though I'm not building packages. If we want package builds out of that
flow, I'd be very happy to take a PR to add it (we'd probably want to
only run that pipeline on releases).

Hey guys,
One of the things we have struggled with in the past is the fact that
the Debian packages are, necessarily, way behind. I would like to set
up a repo that contains the needed packages (at first for deb, but then
for rpm based repositories as well) for users to get their packages
directly from us IF they choose to do so. I am in no way saying we
should not create packages for Debian, but this would allow us to have
more control and also would allow us to create packages that use clang
instead of GCC for Linux.
I am going to set this up on an AWS server. I will let you guys know
about my progress. If anyone would like to help or has any advice, let
me know.
Thanks, GC
