Hi,

for getting pg_stat_monitor into Debian and apt.postgresql.org, the
repository needs to have a certain format. I haven't tried building it
yet, but there are some bits that I can see:

* the / directory in the repository either needs to contain the actual
  source code, or contain /debian/ only.
* debian/control(.in) references percona-postgresql-server-dev-all
  and percona-postgresql-@@PG_REL@@  which do not exist
* control.in uses @@PG_REPL@@ instead of the normal PGVERSION, despite
  using pgxs_debian_control.mk
* the Description is overflowing the first line (see short vs. long
  description)
* you could try upgrading to the more modern `dh --with=pgxs`
  packaging, see pg_buildext(1) on bullseye and later
* debian/copyright doesn't follow the formatting declared in line 1
