If you want to take over packaging in future the package please file an ITA for the bug report you linked. This makes your intention to take over packaging public.

Whatever you prefer. Using pbuilder is a good idea though since you can verify by using it whether your package builds cleanly and you set build dependencies right. I use it first of all to test installation/upgrade of packages (i.e. maintainer scripts). You are not restricted to a particular tool by the way, you can use either one and switch whenever you want. Since your (future) package is versioned in SVN you probably want to use svn-buildpackage as well. > If anyone could give me some helpful hints, it would be really really > appreciated. Some random links besides the NMG http://wiki.debian.org/SponsorChecklist http://wiki.debian.org/SponsoredMaintainer Maybe it is more helpful to ask for particular problems as soon as you have. - -- with kind regards, Arno Töll GnuPG Key-ID: 0x8408D4C4 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJNqAB6AAoJELBdpXvEXpo9W7UQAJelsCHhFCbjwQvyhKkAXfak 1jZFjyhjvwbxpIutnzgxV7iZF6K+95NFRSoPm1Y6vTkMf5Y5uvfqP5W35mISY9P8 p1M9Kjv+sG5fc8P1+eakO0DqgppnOl/QmIv/alaN6qFdMRvletEXvLU/19+peQwZ qRuBoKVNrZcyWPV4r04uEDJFMKfCKcJFQJqNzpKrajrnyI3IyTK/95nkZaxrZUxj RBSBWrVL7FW2AqWRF/+c8NygJoMXcHrrJFQpvNYRXckzwjv+LaFl9nE89H5t9cnP 7GGdiaDYGGFCD5hwUPfCcJILhlTX+FlWesnu0l7Kvl0BJGqv1eEaciJ2JbRhkSIE nEJ9Q2kX4k4MM9773WE2dS9wbJ6BEZVxytKVHxWuBoqjyN2Fzoej5wO9R8yC/F/+ qOVuxmBNc6tIsYxeZAsp6stx29+UXt24fg+75OHamaTvevwpsaCXBiPnZZ19UKZi kmsPiifeF0qJPmHn0KW1HmOSFOR08NPchXXxJEwpjOcYGWnyWGaXxiqdYJVYo8/W S3yYCLA0tszRGy47W0qqaNZZo5pTl6GuWpjdYDWdujJRZlvGPwJIJmQRZH/B/vzl I9e9xAETqwwcUR+Sex/0fBCUZpO246YBazx2c7MfgXOmpC4UKRTd8PfkujKyo6vZ RcrY6ejQ5ayZOhi3HxAF =vUPP -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
