They did no such thing. As the previous maintainer, I set the maintainer to Debian QA, which is the *right and proper thing to do* until the new person actually makes an opload. I am not presently maintaining the package, and neither are you. QA is the right place for it to be. > http://lists.debian.org/debian-mentors/2004/08/msg00048.html > http://lists.debian.org/debian-l10n-german/2004/08/msg00011.html > > A ready package, that solve this bug is already available. > Why did QA-group adopt this package instead to sponsor my upload? Did you even read the changelog at all? gif2png (2.4.7-2) unstable; urgency=low * Orphaning this package. -- John Goerzen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Mon, 26 Jul 2004 15:03:42 -0500 See, *I* orphaned it. That is the latest release. Nobody on the QA team has done a thing with the package. (BTW, I believe liw may be preparing an upload as well.) > What are next steps? > Could QA-team revert their package and sponsor my one or have I build > a new one? What QA package? Debian packages cannot be "reverted". They can only be superceded. -- John
