what to do, when author doesn't respond
Hi, I've made a package for wininfo http://dri.freedesktop.org/Software/wininfo Before looking for a sponsor, I'd like to contact the author and ask him officially for his permission to include it in Debian, but he doesn't respond. The package is under a license I think is satisfying to the Debian policy. What to do now?

If upstream doesn't respond and license is DFSG compatible you can package software without his permission (he agreed for that releasing this software).

RFD: take over packages
Hi, I was writing to Ivo Timmermans[1] that I would like to continue with some of his packages, as he has not updated them for a while. They are music players (mean: binary, libs) for C64 music formats, ie: SID emulator. He said it is OK for him, but when I have updated the packages, fixed bugs, uploaded to mentors.debian.net, I have lost contact with him. In this scenario, given the facts that Sarge is coming, and I have fixed FTBFS bugs with gcc 3.4, would it be a good reason to ask an other DD to upload the packages? I do not want to hijack them, but I don't want to sit tight and just see that the packages are not fixed for Sarge. :( What do mentors think about this? Thanks, Laszlo/GCS [1] [EMAIL PROTECTED]

RFH: strange message after package upload
Hi, My sponsor uploaded sidplay related packages for me. It was like before with other packages: I get a message that the upload was ok, then that it was accepted. However for two binary packages I get this snippshet: -- snip -- (new) libresid-dev_2.1.0-3_i386.deb optional devel WARNING: Already present in main distribution. -- snip -- What does it mean, and how can I fix it? The package already contained this binary package, so it is definiately not new. I have triple checked that the distribution name is ok: unstable; also it does not happen with all the binary packages from that source, only with two of them.

Hi, My sponsor uploaded sidplay related packages for me. It was like before with other packages: I get a message that the upload was ok, then that it was accepted. However for two binary packages I get this snippshet: -- snip -- (new) libresid-dev_2.1.0-3_i386.deb optional devel WARNING: Already present in main distribution. -- snip -- What does it mean, and how can I fix it? The package already contained this binary package, so it is definiately not new. I have triple checked that the distribution name is ok: unstable; also it does not happen with all the binary packages from that source, only with two of them. Thanks for any hints in advance, Laszlo/GCS -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Okay. I would sponsor you, but the links you gave appear to be 404s. -- Please do not CC me when replying to lists; I read them! .''`. martin f. krafft <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> : :' :proud Debian developer, admin, and user `. `'` `- Debian - when you have better things to do than fixing a system Invalid/expired PGP subkeys?

Need sponsor for packages python-irclib and jabber-irc
Hello. At first: I already have a sponsor - Cosimo Alfarano but he is on vacancy up to end of August. I have prepared new version of python-irclib (I'm maintainer of it). It contains small modification to allow jabber-irc package work better. The jabber-irc is the new package and it is not in Debian archive yet. This is the IRC-transport for jabber server. It is written in python basing on the libraries python-xmpp (that I'm the maintainer too) and python-irclib. You can look for my activity in debian project in BTS by email of submitter: [EMAIL PROTECTED] P.S. Since python-irclib is already in Debian archive - we will need a NMU. -- Respectfully Alexey Nezhdanov -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
