Install Fail on Debian 11

[pariah73]

I wish I was using Ubuntu so i could just add the ppa...ugh! Can we PLEEEEEEAAASSSSEEEE GET A .DEB PACKAGE?
Debian 11 fail as follows

dpkg-buildpackage: error: failed to sign touchpad-indicator_2.2.3-ubuntu20.04.0.dsc file: key is not signature-capable
pariah@GrandpappyLappy:~/Touchpad-Indicator$ sudo dpkg -i touchpad-indicator_all.deb
dpkg: error: cannot access archive 'touchpad-indicator_all.deb': No such file or directory

Since Debian 11 (and Ubuntu 22.04) doesn't have AppIndicator anymore, touchpad-indicator needs to switch to using AyatanaAppIndicator. Fortunately it's backward compatible with AppIndicator. This little patch should take care of it so a debian package can be built.

I am also getting an error on Debian:

The repository 'https://ppa.launchpadcontent.net/atareao/atareao/ubuntu bookworm Release' does not have a Release file.
