Hi all! This email is motivated by an effective current issue, as detailed below, but I'm seeing myself in similar situations quite often. There is a package, which isn't officially orphaned, but the maintainer is neither responding to bug reports nor to mails to her @d.o address. Even though there is a patch provided with the bug report or I do have one myself, I'm seeing no way of how to fix the bug and get the package back on track. For the curious, my motivation currently stems from #328244. We are using brickos and gcc-h8300-hms at our site for teaching purposes, so we had to patch the gcc-h8300-hms package and provide it in our local repository, but this isn't the way Debian works, is it!? Thanks, Michael
