Hi Sylvestre and Alexander (cc Rust team and debian-devel), Please do not silently hijack packages.
If you would like to take over maintenance for some package, then please ask. Then I won't bite¹. And when you do hijack packages²³, then please be respectful and give credit, by preserving/reviving past contributions in the changelog file. Kind regards, - Jonas ¹ Just like I didn't bite at the accidental hijack in February: Quoting Jonas Smedegaard (2024-02-17 02:20:03) > Hi Sylvestre, > > Quoting Sylvestre Ledru (2024-02-16 19:24:00) > > I am really sorry but it seems that I made a mistake with rust > > palette: > > > > https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/rust-palette > > > > I didn't realize that it was already uploaded (probably because I > > uploaded https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/rust-palette-derive ) > > > > Please let me know how to fix this issue :( > > > > I needed it for the new version of eza! > > Ok, I will try fix that.

And just as I didn't bite when, after ignoring the above mentioned bug and after my work cleaning up after the February accident, that same package *again* was hijacked: https://alioth-lists.debian.net/pipermail/pkg-rust-maintainers/2024-April/040451.html Only when you shrugged when my pointing out that second hijack did I arguably bite: https://alioth-lists.debian.net/pipermail/pkg-rust-maintainers/2024-April/040452.html ² This changelog: https://tracker.debian.org/media/packages/r/rust-palette/changelog-0.7.5-1 is missing these entries: https://salsa.debian.org/debian/rust-palette/-/blob/debian/0.7.4.0+dfsg-3/debian/changelog ³ This changelog: https://tracker.debian.org/media/packages/r/rust-lazy-regex-proc-macros/changelog-3.1.0-1 is missing these entries: https://tracker.debian.org/media/packages/r/rust-lazy-regex/changelog-3.1.0-1 -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist & Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ * Sponsorship: https://ko-fi.com/drjones [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private
