What's broken? How is it broken? Sounds like the package just need a
rebuild. Is that correct?
Uploads are checked against the keyring in
/pure64/wanna-build/pubring.gpg and every member of debian-amd64 has
access rights to it. The upload queue is /pure64/incoming, again
debian-amd64 has access.
So first you need an alioth account (which DDs have) then ask a
debian-amd64 admin to add you to the list. The rest you can do
yourself or ask the admin as well.
Or you ask (on irc) Frederik Schueler (fs), Kurt Roeckx (Q_) or me
(mrvn) to upload a fix. Whatever you prefer.
