As some of you may have guessed from some of my confused emails the last few days I am the author of peless, and I have been trying to get peless into debian. I am not an experienced debian person.
I have been trying to get all my control, rules, changelog, ect, files into shape so the peless will package, so then I can hand it off to an experienced debian packager who I hope to talk into putting peless into debian. To this end, I have been using ubuntu 7.04 as a developement environment. Is that wrong? If so, it could be a problem for me, because I have dialup and it would take a long time to download a distribution dvd. I had this ubuntu CD, (they seem to be everywhere), so I just started to use it. Everyone tells me that ubuntu is a form of debian. Anyway, today I thought I had all my files OK, and I could build a package, so I thought to try to submit a "RFP". I did a "bugreport --email [EMAIL PROTECTED] wnpp" but it never asked me to "Choose the request type:" like it says in this web page: http://www.debian.org/devel/wnpp/ finnaly when it began saying it was going to send the report off to an ubuntu mailing list, I aborted it. Is there a way to file a RFP from ubuntu? What am I doing wrong? Please excuse all the dumb questions.
