Dear Maintainer, I'm interested in salvaging your package mtpaint, in accordance with the Package Salvaging procedure outlined in the Developers Reference[1]. Your package meets the criteria for this process, and I would love to assist in preserving and maintaining it. As the Salvage process suggests, here is a list of the criteria that apply, in my opinion: - NMUs, especially if there has been more than one NMU in a row. - Bugs filed against the package do not have answers from the maintainer. - Upstream has released several versions, but despite there being a bug entry asking for it, it has not been packaged. - There are QA issues with the package. I've set up a repository within the salvage-team space[2] to assist you with this initial setup. If you decide not to accept the ITS, this repository can easily be moved to another location, such as debian/, or any place of your choosing. I hope this service helps make the transition to using a Git repository on Salsa smoother and more convenient for you. Your package was highlighted in the Bug of the Day[3] initiative, which aims to introduce newcomers to manageable tasks and guide them through the workflow to solve them. The focus of this initiative is on migrating packages to Salsa, as it's a great way to familiarize newcomers with a consistent Git-based workflow.
