In order to use a custom keyboard layout you will first have to
jailbreak your device. Then you can install iKeyEx using Cydia (the
homebrew app store that is added when you jailbreak). You won't be
able to install the deb file directly, it just doesn't work that way.

Once iKeyEx is installed it's actually pretty easy to create your own
custom layout, but it does require you have to SSH setup on your
jailbreaked device so you can remotely connect to the device and
transfer the files needed for the layout.

I can look and see if I have the files for the pIqaD keyboard and send
them too you, but it's been a while since I've used them as I no
longer have an iOS device to use it on.
