- contact the person who signed the upload

~% who-uploads gpsd
Uploads for gpsd:
3.9-1 to unstable: Bernd Zeimetz <[email protected]>
3.6-4+deb7u1 to wheezy: Bernd Zeimetz <[email protected]>
3.6-5 to unstable: Bernd Zeimetz <[email protected]>


or the person in the changelog, which should never be a machine account...
% zcat /usr/share/doc/gpsd/changelog.Debian.gz | parsechangelog - | grep 
Maintainer
