For which purpose do you need this package? According to information in the Debian bug report support for these keyboards is already provided in the kernel.

The g15deamon package activate the Display of the Logitech G15 keyboard.
With this package you can see a clock ( Yeah ), the g15stats package activate the abillity to see system stats on the display.

Ubuntu does not provide that software for its 20.04 release, but there is a PPA

Maybe that helps. Standard disclaimer about the limited trustworthiness of PPAs applies of course.

There is a PPA here

Use at your own risk. Obviously the normal PPA caveats apply but as stated there is suspected malware/spyware here...

Can you help with this problem?
