The purpose of my NMU was get the package properly cleaned up and increase the percentage of buildable packages, especially on the IA64 architecture. > > * I uploaded -4, which set the maintainer to Debian QA Group, for the > > reasons discussed in the changelog, re-intergrated the fixes you > > ignored from -2.3, and I acked the previous NMU's so that the bugs > > would be closed. > > See above.

Sorry, it's a matter of record that you did only one maintainer upload in the first 14 months you maintained the package, while 2 NMU's happened that fixed release-critical bugs. Also, it is a matter of record that you did not properly ack those NMU's. Maybe you want to censor that changelog entry because you are ashamed of the truths it brings to light? > > * You uploaded -5. > > Which included your changes from -2.3. Pointless, since they were already included in -4. -- G. Branden Robinson | Debian GNU/Linux | If existence exists, branden@debian.org | why create a creator? http://people.debian.org/~branden/ |
