Hi, Vykuntam.
You may want to look at ipplan bugs [1] and propose ways to fix them.
Namely, bug 618388 might be quite simple.
One should figure out if libphp-phplayersmenu really needed.
Why it was removed? Etc. Maybe you will need to maintain
libphp-phplayersmenu first.
Then you should download source package, make you changes, test a package
on you system, then upload it to Debian Mentors [2].
You can get more info from Debian New Maintainers' Guide [3]
