 All wrong. You NMU a package, which has a real maintainer. I know that
he is not really active and/or responsive (well, not very helpful
either); but you miss the following points:
- you don't present your diff to the bugreport going to be NMUed,
- you should give some day to the maintaner to catch up,
- NMUs are not for such minor bugreports,
- you don't fix any important bug that should be fixed (like #400872),
- it's freeze time, only important bugfixes and translation updates are
  accepted,
- have you contacted the maintainer anyway, what did he say?
