Can I update your cimg-dev package, please? As a maintainer is listed [email protected], so you should contact this mailing list (CCed them). As a group, you might also want to join them to co-maintain this package. > > Also do you have some good reason for NMUing new upstream > > version? > > This is a pretty trivial package to update, it hasn't been updated in > a couple of years, and it has a couple of bugs related to getting the > package updated. Package updates are often trivial, but the maintainer might have good reason for not updating right now. Especially when we're in freeze. > I just figured I could go ahead and do it, since it's so easy. I guess > I forgot the politics of who owns a package. The package is not on a LowNMU list and you don't fix any RC bug, so usuall NMU policy should apply, see <http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/developers-reference/pkgs.html#nmu>. -- Michal Čihař | http://cihar.com | http://blog.cihar.com
