Great. > I'll need to reimport the > git repo since the Debian GNOME team has a particular style (full > upstream git history with git-buildpackage and DEP-14 branches). That's perfectly fine. > Why the 10-day delay? https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/developers-reference/pkgs.en.html#package-salvaging says: 3. After the 21 days delay, if no answer has been sent to the bug from the maintainer, one of the uploaders or team, you may upload the new release of the package into the DELAYED queue with a minimum delay of seven days. You should close the salvage bug in the changelog and you must also send an nmudiff to the bug ensuring that copies are sent to the maintainer and any uploaders (including teams) of the package by CC'ing them in the mail to the BTS. During the waiting time of the DELAYED queue, the maintainer can accept the salvaging, do an upload themselves or (ask to) cancel the upload. The latter two of these will also stop the salvaging process, but the maintainer must reply to the salvaging bug with more information about their action. I do not expect the maintainer to insist at all to our actions but it makes sense to stick to this formalism. Just let me know if you need any help and thank you for taking over Andreas. -- https://fam-tille.de
