Hello sir, Thank you for your guidance so far. I have prepared the next steps I plan to take, but I have a few questions to make sure I’m doing this correctly.
1. Configure mentors.dput I will create the file ~/.dput.cf with the following content: [mentors] fqdn = mentors.debian.net incoming = /upload method = https allow_unsigned_uploads = 0 progress_indicator = 2 allowed_distributions = .* 2. Upload to mentors.debian.net To upload the package, I will run: dput mentors yourpackage_1.0-version_source.changes But I want to be sure: what exactly should I put instead of yourpackage_1.0-version_source.changes? 3. Request sponsorship To: [email protected] Subject: Bug#1121687: RFS: ibus-avro — IBus engine for Avro Phonetic Package: sponsorship-requests Severity: wishlist Package: ibus-avro Version: 1.2+git20230914-2 Urgency: low Maintainer: Md. Asif Hossain <[email protected]> Control: add needs-sponsor I have a few questions about this: - Should I CC [email protected] in the sponsorship bug? - Is Urgency: low appropriate, or is another level better? - Do I need to request merging my updated code with the original Debian package maintainers, or is this covered by RFS? Debian Wiki Or, I need to do something else? Best regards, Md.
