Hi list, I currently maintain the 'slingshot' package in Debian, however, upstream appears to be MIA, website no longer exists, etc, etc. However, I have received a patch from a user that fixes issues (no crashes at help / welcome screen, remove deprecated pygame warnings, etc.) and adds features such as network support, consistent code formatting, etc.
I am wondering how to best distribute these changes. Should I apply them to upstream's sources in the 'slingshot' package, or would it be better to make to two packages (à la mutt / mutt-patched), one called 'slingshot', the other 'slingshot-patched' or something of the sort. Or should I apply the bug fixes to both, and keep the features to -patched?
