The URL abbreviation for bug 188181 is: http://bugs.debian.org/188181 In addition to Matthew Palmer's suggestions, you also need to retitle bug #188181 from O (orphaned) to ITA (intent to adopt) by sending a mail message to control@bugs.debian.org and cc debian-devel@lists.debian.org with the following two lines: retitle 188181 ITA: zed -- Powerful, multipurpose, configurable text editor stop After the stop line you can put your explanations, signature, etc. Put 'Bug #188181 ITA: zed -- Powerful, multipurpose, configurable text editor' in the subject header of your mail message. See: http://www.debian.org/devel/wnpp/ http://www.debian.org/Bugs/server-control Include the following line in zed's changelog file: * New maintainer. (Closes: #188181) Try to get bug #169469 fixed either by the upstream author or by yourself. Read the developer's reference, repackage zed and you will be ready to ask for a sponsor.
