There’s also a PureSwift organization of GitHub that has several Swift PM 
packages built specifically with Linux support in mind

https://github.com/PureSwift <https://github.com/PureSwift>

It looks like it’s along the lines of SwiftBreezy, but it hasn’t died out…yet.

At the same time, this may just be another example of how without an Apple 
“backed”/supported repo, the community is very likely to become more and more 
fragmented as more and more people implement the same few frameworks with minor 
variations/improvements.
