That would be fine for me as well. Note that the "pu" I put in subject
was just what reportbug had to offer. I'd would have gone for the
fastest way, whatever you may call it.
reportbug is correct. There is no way that you get a package into
-updates without it having gone through the standard p-u procedure first
- see

I put "jessie" in the
changelog, I don't know if it should be "jessie-updates" but reading
No, "jessie" is correct.
https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/developers-reference/pkgs.html#distribution
there is no mention of "codename-updates", nor "codename" FWIW.
Reading that to the letter, the changelog should say "stable", but I
have been told otherwise.
I thought dev-ref had been updated to mention using codenames
throughout; looks like that was only for security.
