I have reviewed the patch, and it LGTM, so: Reviewed-by: Ian Jackson <[email protected]> I have made an MR of this on Salsa, so that we get a CI run there: https://salsa.debian.org/iwj/hippotat/-/merge_requests/53 Assuming it merges, I would appreciate it if you would do the actual upload, using a git-based workflow. (I won't be able to do the upload myself right now because of a problem with my PGP key. That is going to take some weeks to sort out, most likely.) I think the recipe for such an upload would be git clone https://salsa.debian.org/iwj/hippotat cd hippotat dgit fetch diff -u hippotat.debdiff <(git diff dgit/dgit/sid..main) # ^ to verify that the changes are as expected # and avoid critical relyiance on salsa, or this email dgit push-source sid If you don't have time to do this I will probably ask Sean Whitton to do it - he has been sponsoring my GCC-15 uploads. (Normally I would deal with a situation like this by making an upstream release, but an upstream release ought to be signed with my PGP key so I can't do that right now.)
