I haven't touched it in a couple of weeks, but was planning to get back to work on it in the next few days. I would love to get some testers for the package.

One area in particular that was problematic was a strained relationship with upstream (aiui, the result of having an unmaintained vulnerable package in Debian for some time); Mark has already been in some contact with them. If you still have reservations, feel free to raise them â before we upload this (soonish) would work better :) Thanks, Faidon -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

The upstream security engineering is done in a very professional manner. The old package was removed because - the old package was practically unmaintained (only activity every year or so). If there's now a full maintainer team, all the better. - the old packaging was horrible (multiple tarballs mixed in a weird way and instead of patches everything was modified by a series of shell scripts run during build) and close to impossible to NMU in a sane way. If you start bugzilla4 packaging from scratch that should not be a problem. Cheers, Moritz -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Have you checked why bugzilla3 used to be in Debian, and got removed (see #638705). I guess you'd better have to convince people that things will be improved with the new version, for the success of this ITP ;-) Hope this helps.
