Wow, that was fast!  LTGM, with one caveat: You are an Uploader for this
package now, so please drop the "Team upload" line entirely.  This makes
you the human maintainer for the package, so I have sent you an invitation
for salsa/gitlab maintainer permissions for muse-el.

> [1] https://salsa.debian.org/emacsen-team/muse-el/-/merge_requests/3

You will notice that there are two other MRs.  Please double-check that
the bot did its work correctly, and please manually go through the
Debian Policy upgrade checklist, starting with the version muse-el uses,
and each version up to and including the one the bot proposed.  If you
would like to take credit for this work, I recommend adding "and your
name" to the changelog entries the bot proposes.

 [ The name of the bot and your name ]

In other words, I would like to give you permission to write to this
repo!  Bots will often rebase their MRs to save you time, and I will
leave the decision of what gets merged first, and what gets rebased up
to you.

Let me know when your done, and we can talk about the next steps.

Cheers,
Nicholas

Hi,

Reply follows inline.  Can we move this discussion to #1016558 to not
bother Axel with our discussion?

That's fine, thank you once again for adopting it, and yes, generally
everything is ok :)

You're welcome, and good call.

Wonderful!  I also see you have a GPG key now.  Have you generated
revocations certificates yet?

  https://wiki.debian.org/Keysigning#Step_2:_Generate_a_revocation_certificate

Next, where can I find your key?  I'm assuming that you're committed to
maintaining this identity for the foreseeable future, and that you'd
like to build reputation for future involvement in Debian.  It's not
required at the stage you're at, but it's recommended.

  https://wiki.debian.org/Keysigning#Step_3:_Make_your_public_key_public

The subkey that I was able to download didn't include any identities.

Other than that, this package isn't quite ready to upload, because there
are three unaddressed lintian warnings.

Nicholas

Ah, that's where it was.  I thought everyone had switched to
https://keys.openpgp.org/ these days (this is the default server on
Debian) after the end of the SKS network.  Thanks for the reminder to
continue to check pgp.mit.edu as a fallback.

This is the first I've heard of that recommendation.  I wonder if
people in #debian-mentors (OFTC) will also be surprised?  I'd use
keyserver.ubuntu.com if I had a Launchpad account and maintained a
PPA, but honestly wouldn't bother.  I started using keys.openpgp.org
since that's where various people expected to find my key haha.

If you really want to, go ahead, but I'm not interested in the FSF's
identity verification for copyright assignment process, so this might
end up as a futile effort.  In light of this, a "hey, we have a UTF8
conversion patch...would you like to convert your copy to UTF8 either
with or without our patch" might be smoother.  If you happen to have
have done FSF copyright assignment paperwork, please go ahead and
claim ownership of that trivial patch.

I'm happy to sponsor from git when you finalise the changelog, but if
ever you want to get some hands-on experience with dput (or dput-ng),
then practise uploading to https://mentors.debian.net/.

Best,
Nicholas

Hi,

I'm just updating this bug to note the adopted muse-el package is just
about ready to upload (the ITA is also a pseudo-RFS bug), and I plan to
upload in the next few days.  If this update isn't enough to prevent
autoremoval...well, at least the package will be fixed very soon.

Regards,
Nicholas

Bug#891717: btrfs-progs: btrfs filesystem show takes a long time

2019-03-19 Thread Nicholas D Steeves
Control: tag -1 + confirmed

Hi Stefan,

Thank you for filing this bug, and thank you for providing the
upstream URL for this issue.  As this is not an RC issue I expect the
resolution will be deferred until bullseye (buster+1/Debian 11).

If the problem is strictly in btrfs-progs it is likely that a
future buster-backport release will resolve it.

Cheers,
Nicholas

Thank you for the email Ola, and thank you for your work maintaining
this package.

During the years I maintained this package it was almost always
sufficient to 's/phpX.Y/phpZ.A/'.  The one time it was not sufficient
was because php-elisp didn't yet support some new breaking PHP changes,
and this was very quickly resolved with upstream.  Thus, my experience
with this package was that the autopkgtests prevent regressions in
Debian.

I also remember periodic interactions with upstream, and they were
always positive, so it's worth noting that we (as Debian) have a good
rapport with this upstream.

Regards,
Nicholas
