The build instructions on the sigrok Wiki only work for Python2, which is past its end of life date. To build libsigrok with Python bindings for Python3, you need to set PYTHON=python3 when running configure.

The dependency list is also slightly different:

sudo apt-get install git-core gcc g++ make autoconf autoconf-archive \
  automake libtool pkg-config libglib2.0-dev libglibmm-2.4-dev libzip-dev \
  libusb-1.0-0-dev libftdi1-dev check doxygen python3-numpy \
  python3-dev python-gi-dev python3-setuptools swig default-jdk

"python-gi-dev" is not a typo -- the package covers both Python2 and Python3.

Side note: Installing libserialport-dev instead of building your own version as documented on the Wiki seems to work fine.

A .deb package is an easy solution for distributing Perl modules to Debian-based systems. Unlike manual installation using Module::Build, it does not require re-installation whenever the perl minor version changes. Unlike project-specific cpanm or carton setups, the module is available system-wide and can easily be used in random Perl scripts which are not bound to a project repository.

The Debian package dh-make-perl (also known as cpan2deb) does a good job here. In many cases, creating a personal package for a Perl module is as easy as cpan2deb Acme::Octarine. Delegating the build process to Docker may be useful if you do not have a Debian build host available and would rather avoid having the build process depend on the (probably not well-defined) state of your dev machine.

For CPAN modules, all you need is a Debian container with dh-make-perl. Using this container, run cpan2deb and extract the resulting .deb. You can find a Dockerfile and some scripts for this task in my docker-dh-make-perl repository. The Dockerfile is used to create a dh-make-perl image (so you don't need to install dh-make-perl in a fresh Debian image whenever you build a module). scripts/makedeb-docker-helper builds the package inside the container and copies it to the out/ directory, and scripts/makedeb-docker orchestrates the process.

Note: A package generated this way is suitable for personal use. It is not fit for inclusion in the Debian package repository. As all Debian packages must have an author, you need to set the DEBEMAIL and DEBFULLNAME environment variables to appropriate values. Feel free to extend the Dockerfile and scripts as you see fit – the repository is meant to provide a starting point only.

For non-CPAN content (e.g. if you are a module author and do not want to wait for your freshly uploaded release to appear on CPAN, or if you need to build a patched version of a CPAN module), the process is slightly more involvevd. It requires

• additional bind mounts (docker run -v "${PWD}:/orig:ro") to copy the module content into the container,
• a manually provided version (in my case via git describe --dirty), and
• disabling module signing (unless you pass your GPG keyring to the container).

I also manually specify the packages needed for building and testing. I assume that this is not needed and can be performed automatically by dh-make-perl --install-deps --install-build-deps.

Module content and versioning depends on your setup, so I will not provide a git repository for this case. Please refer to the makedeb-docker and makedeb-docker-helper scripts in Travel::Routing::DE::VRR, Travel::Status::DE::IRIS and Travel::Status::DE::VRR for examples.
