Hello,
Its me again. Once again, I'm throwing myself on your mercy because
although I like programming and packaging, I am having a horrible time
finding my way through your web pages to adopt a package and keep it
up to date.
So far I have succeeded in declaring the ITP on the blt packages and
built the package. In the changelog I inserted the declarations that
close the wnpp bug and the other blt-related bugs, like so:
blt (2.4z-6) unstable; urgency=normal
* Closes: #664092
* Closes: #524149
* Closes: #636629
* Version 2.4z-6 introduces quilt-3.0 patches.
* 02-debian-all.diff includes all of the changes that were applied
to the source code by previous packager. Almost all of the changes
are corrections in spelling in the blt documentation and examples.
* Apply 3 changes based on revisions developed by the fedora linux team.
+ 03-fedora-patch-2.diff
+ 04-fedora-tk8.5.6.patch.diff
+ 05-tk8.5-zoomstack.diff
* Those patches are required to solve segmentation faults that are observed
when blt is used with tcltk 8.5. We have a substantial amount of
experience using this patched version of blt in the Swarm
Simulation System (www.swarm.org) and have observed no ill-effects.
I've tested programs that use blt, the ones that used to have
segmentation faults, and they are fine.
Next step: upload. I put the server settings in ~/.dput.cf, and here's
the result.

Successfully uploaded packages
That *seems* to say it worked, so what happens next?
I don't see the package yet on http://mentors.debian.net/, but I've
uploaded the whole directory to my own server as well, in case you
care to review my work:
http://pj.freefaculty.org/Debian/wheezy/amd64/blt-2.4z-quilted/
My pgp key for that is on the mentors website.
