Fix any bugs, update the package to the newest debian-policy, package newer upstream releases, ... and enjoy stepping in the wonderful world of Debian packaging! :) Note that you will need to read some documentation about packaging and about Debian procedures; it's too time consuming to guide you through all steps in detail via debian-mentors. The documentation is very complete, so if you read the documents with your full attention, you should find your way to what to do. > Another question, does it more needed packages up for adoption or > orphaned packages ? You are completely free to choose what interests you most. For a new maintainer, it might be easier to adopt a simple orphaned package, add a small fix (for example, add a manpage), and get it uploaded in Debian via a sponsor. Now you might ask, what's a sponsor? Well, that's documented too. :) Reading is gooood. :) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
