Good Morning, I agree that this is a reasonable course of action. To make sure I understand: should I change this bug to packaging upstream mmsd, or should I close this bug and open a new bug to package upstream mmsd?
I am fine doing either one, but I want to make sure I do the correct one. -- Respectfully, Chris Talbot On Mon, 2021-03-22 at 08:40 +0100, Guido Günther wrote: > Hi Chris, > On Tue, Mar 16, 2021 at 10:01:14AM -0400, Chris Talbot wrote: > > Hello, > > > > I attempted again to contact the upstream developers and did not > > recieve a response.
