@shahmishal Where can I upload ( raise a PR with) the .deb package ?
Secondly are there any swift scripts I can use to test run the package?

You can create a pull request to the swift-installer-scripts repo.

I have raised a PR for the same.
Secondly should I just work on the next steps and add more commits to the same PR so we can merge the whole thing together?
