This package is not marked as lowNMU threshold, the bug is not relevant to the Lenny release, the package is not orphaned, there is no indication in the bug report that you have prepared an NMU and you have not waited for the maintainer to respond to the NMU request (as you haven't made it) - why are you considering an NMU? You couldn't even be bothered to describe the problem within the bug report itself, merely linking to some other site that supposedly describes the 'issue'. > I've also fixed a few lintinan warnings. Not a good enough reason - yes, if this was an orphaned package or you had proof that the maintainer is MIA. > The package can be found on mentors.debian.net: > - URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/b/bfilter > - Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable > main contrib non-free > - dget > http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/b/bfilter/bfilter_1.1.4-1.1.dsc > > I would be glad if someone uploaded this package for me.

This is another upload to mentors that should be summarily removed for blatant disregard for Policy. -- Neil Williams ============= http://www.data-freedom.org/ http://www.nosoftwarepatents.com/ http://www.linux.codehelp.co.uk/
