It is a rust package that can be built with meson, e.g. this is how it is done in the aur https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/PKGBUILD?h=hieroglyphic
For the deb package, the debs in the PPA package (maintained by me) can be pulled https://code.launchpad.net/~apandada1/+archive/ubuntu/hieroglyphic
