  1. sudo apt-get install python3-launchpadlib install this or launchpad source will not be deemed as a legit source
  2. sudo add-apt-repository ppa:apandada1/brightness-controller works
  3. sudo apt install brightness-controller works perfectly

Debian recommends that you don't add a PPA. Instead, manually download and install the .deb file from Launchpad

Update: I used this script on another instance of debian 12,
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:apandada1/brightness-controller is no longer reliable because I got prompted with E: The repository 'https://ppa.launchpadcontent.net/apandada1/brightness-controller/ubuntu bookworm Release' does not have a Release file.

adding a source list file with the following content will resolve it.

# apandada1-ubuntu-brightness-controller-bookworm.list
deb https://ppa.launchpadcontent.net/apandada1/brightness-controller/ubuntu/ jammy main
# deb-src https://ppa.launchpadcontent.net/apandada1/brightness-controller/ubuntu/ bookworm main
