Yes, and the first time it was because there were no .orig files o_O I'm
learning I'm learning.

The message putting those up for adoption was posted on Debian-devel:
http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2005/05/msg00206.html
After I said there was no O or RFA, some people on #debian-mentors recommended
that I put up an ITA to claim the package. I really don't know if it was the
Right Thing to do in retrospect but nor the Debian NM and Reference guide had
nothing to say about that.

Some of those seem to have poped up just after the rebuild the package with
the Debian version number... or maybe it's just me that was an idiot and did
not spot them. Anyway thanks for the advice, I'll solve the policy
violations and them contact the previous maintainer.
