Thanks Adam, I applied the patch to the package currently in stable (0.5.1-1) and added a debian/changelog entry, mod-gnutls (0.5.1-2) stable; urgency=low http://www.sfu.ca/~jdbates/debian/pool/mod-gnutls/ The package has no more recent changelog entries, e.g. from the packages in testing/unstable - similarly I won't include this changelog entry in the next upload to testing/unstable? Here's a diff between this package and the package currently in stable, http://www.sfu.ca/~jdbates/debian/pool/mod-gnutls/patch Now I think I simply ask my Debian sponsor to upload this package This is the first time I will upload to stable - please let me know if I'm making any mistakes?
