You can't get your package into the current stable (potato) unless it is tremendously important, and another point release is made. So I'll assume your talking about the next stable release (woody). For this you mainly have to get into testing. Then, unless your package is removed again due to major problems, it will end up in stable when release time comes by. > Currently, I maintain the kvirc (and kvirc-doc, kvirc-dev) packages > which have been in unstable since June 20 this year.

Look for your package on <URL:http://ftp-master.debian.org/testing/update_excuses.html>. It will tell you that some archs (arm, m68k, powerpc) had trouble compiling it. Links to relevant build logs are included -- review those and try to fix the bugs. Also note that normally versions younger than 10 days are not considered for moving to testing ... but that also means that if you upload every 7 days, your package will be ignored until you slack off a bit. > Also, with the freeze currently in progress, do I have to wait with > this? Only base is frozen ATM. -- Robbe
