it looks like you are a bit confused. capstone is already in Debian
so there is no need to file an "ITP" (Intent To Package). I saw
that your already converted the "O" (Orphaned) bug into a "ITA" (Intent to
Adopt) bug (#843440) and that you already made a sponsorship request
(#846348).

I would like to suggest you to join the pkg-security team and maintain
that package in the team's git repository. We have sponsors for your
updated package in the team.

Please have a look at https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/pkg-security
and request to join the team on
https://alioth.debian.org/projects/pkg-security

Subscribe to the mailing list and feel free to ask any question on the
list.

Have you checked whether capstone 4 breaks reverse dependencies?

Cheers,
