And since that'd lead to two ITPs for your case, so you should do both (1) and (2) that you mentioned above; i.e. retitle+merge. The following contents to control@bugs.debian.org should do the trick: retitle 1004498 ITP: <your ITP title> merge 1004498 <your ITP bug#> thanks > I would appreciate your help in knowing exactly how to do this. At a glance it makes sense but I don't know how to do it within Debian. It's a bit confusing for a new comer. Thank you for your good advice. This should help you learn the right way[1][2] for further reports, do take a look. > > > It would be great if a Debian Developer on this mailing list would be able to sponsor the package for me > > I/someone else will do so definitely. > Thank you! I will let you know when it is uploaded to mentors. No need to do so, that'd be an un-necessary formality for us; just push to salsa and pass us the link. I have added you to our team w/ maintainer perms. > After working with the software, I think I would agree. This seems to be a general package and not medical specific. For now, I have hosted the repo on my personal salsa [1] Please push it to our team's namespace, and let us know when you think it is ready. PS: <nitpick> Your mailing client seems to append a lot of blank lines to every line on the email you reply to; and it renders weird for me both on thunderbird and mutt - please consider to fix this </nitpick> > [1] https://salsa.debian.org/linqigang/toml11 [2]: https://www.debian.org/Bugs/server-control [3]:https://wiki.debian.org/BTS Regards, Nilesh
