Hi Petr,
> >Still not sure about it. please read: https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/developers-reference/pkgs.html#nmu-changelog Actually it depends, an NMU is a "one shot" upload, where you fix a particular bug but you express not much interest in maintaining the package (e.g. an NMU can be performed to fix the package build after a transition on a low level depending library). In this case I would not personally sponsor such package, basically there are a maintainer and two uploaders already. they asked for help in 799759 and you didn't offer your help (so I won't sponsor a change where you set youself as uploader, without seeing an ack on that bug from the maintainers) second, you are fixing a bug with no serious severity, but there is actually a more serious bug around (785898), that means that without a proper fix this package will be removed from testing, and not part of Stretch release. So if you really care about the package you should start by fixing the RC bugs, and then NMU it as appropriate with some minor patches. (If you have enough good reasons about doing the opposite I can try to change my opinion :p ) cheers, (and thanks Danny for the nice answer!) Gianfranco
