It sure doesn't sound like the one I wrote: "When a package that has been ITP'ed is finally packaged, I'd like to suggest that it be reassigned to ftp.debian.org." If you have a problem with people filing bugs with the BTS to declare their intent to package each new package they intend to upload, I suggest you talk to the WNPP team ASAP. > (instead of adding a Closes line to the changelog), "The package changelog can and should still use "Closes: #<ITP bugnumber>", so that the bug is closed automatically" > and filing, what, a dozen new bugs against ftp.debian.org every week is > something other than harassment [0]? I'm sorry, I don't understand where you're getting the "new" bugs from. ITP bugs already exist in the BTS. > Why, btw, are you uploading a NEW package with the maintainer set to -qa, > especially when -qa has already asked for the package to be removed from > the distro? That's usually considered somewhat irresponsible. Did you read the changelog of the uploaded package? It appears in the bug logs of #113360. > [0] A few weeks ago, the term would've been "bug terrorism", but maybe not > now. Thankfully(?), you've kept the meme alive with this message. -- G.
