An NMU is in order in this case because you are neither listed as maintainer nor uploader for libtorrent. It is just a convention. collab-maint makes it easier for Debian contributors to commit changes but it is still polite and appropriate to inform people about it. > >> It would be great if you could prepare a debdiff for a standard NMU. > > Debdiff attached; Markus, take your pick between this one and the last one. Thanks Peter. I will take this one because it only fixes the OpenSSL issue. By the way the package should be fine anyway since it is still available in testing and won't be removed before the 5th of January. In any case I'm going to upload the NMU now. Regards, Markus
