Heh?  Please read section 5.11 of the Developer's Reference about
non-maintainer uploads[1].  You're not supposed to set yourself as the
Maintainer in the uploaded package; if you did that so that the bug is
closed instead of being marked as fixed, then you didn't do it right.

Moreover, you're supposed to send the diff of your NMU to the bug log,
but I can't find it there.  And finally, it looks like you uploaded
directly to incoming and not to a delayed queue, which is the usual
procedure for NMUs.  The 0-day NMU period has been over for quite some
time now.

If you're not familiar with the procedure to follow for NMUs, please
post a patch to the BTS and ask someone with more experience to do the
actual NMU, don't hijack packages this way.

Thanks,
