Hello sir,
Thank you for your guidance so far. I have prepared the next steps I plan to take, but I have a few questions to make sure I’m doing this correctly.
1. Configure mentors.dput
I will create the file ~/.
dput.cf with the following content:
[mentors]
fqdn =
mentors.debian.netincoming = /upload
method = https
allow_unsigned_uploads = 0
progress_indicator = 2
allowed_distributions = .*
2. Upload to
mentors.debian.netTo upload the package, I will run:
dput mentors yourpackage_1.0-version_source.changes
But I want to be sure: what exactly should I put instead of yourpackage_1.0-version_source.changes?
3. Request sponsorship
To:
submit@bugs.debian.orgSubject: Bug#1121687: RFS: ibus-avro — IBus engine for Avro Phonetic
Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: wishlist
Package: ibus-avro
Version: 1.2+git20230914-2
Urgency: low
Maintainer: Md. Asif Hossain <
md.asifhossainayon@gmail.com>
Control: add needs-sponsor
I have a few questions about this:
- Should I CC 1121687@bugs.debian.org in the sponsorship bug?
- Is Urgency: low appropriate, or is another level better?
- Do I need to request merging my updated code with the original Debian package maintainers, or is this covered by RFS? Debian Wiki
Or, I need to do something else?
Best regards,
Md. Asif Hossain
