Hey, Tino.

Combining replies.

Thanks much, I'll have a look.

That's fine.

Yes, as it should.  ;-)

Well I'm not a DD (yet) so I can't upload it directly -- I'm a DM.  DMs can
only directly upload packages that they are the maintainer/uploader for, and
only if a DD has requested that the DM be given permission to upload that
specific package.

ftp-master.debian.org has the following link for details:

   https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2012/09/msg00008.html

In the case of xca I never intended to upload the package I had updated to
Debian.  Rather, I updated the package for my own use (due to Bug #706539)
intending to release it to my own external repo, and I offered the result to
you at the same time in the hope that it would help you with packaging an
updated version that you could upload to Debian.  ;-)



Side notes:

One of the most recent 2 messages in this thread was signed, and I see the
key was revoked -- looks like it was signed with your old key rather than
your newer one.  ;-)

If you're interested in becoming a DM, what you'll need is 2 GPG signatures
from DDs (on your newer key), and 2 GPG-signed messages from DDs sent to a
specific mailing list as part of the process.  (And now also an Alioth guest
account, apparently.)  See the "Join the NM process" link at:

   https://nm.debian.org/

... which requires logging in to an Alioth guest account to view (and this
is the reason I briefly listed the requirements above).
