How to request a resurrection of a debian package ?



Hi list,

I was looking for dcc, and then I read about it was a debian package,
but it was removed because of a security hole [1].

Researching, this security hole was fixed in upstream latter debian
removed it from its archive [2]

Now dcc version is 1.3.99,

I don't known what to do, but I'd like to see dcc in debian archives again.

I thought about:
1) writing a mail to control@bugs.debian.org with "reopen 464161" in
body/subject
I think it won't work

2) create a new RFP bug, it is fine ?

Thank you for your opinions
