Here is the dsc URL: https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/g/gmrun/gmrun_0.9.2-2.1+nmu1.dsc > I have to wonder though if this package really is maintained at all? > (The officially listed maintainer hasn't touched the package since > 2010.) Would you consider adopting it if not? Yes, I would consider adopting it. Ubuntu also has a bug report on a similar problem [1] and a more extensive patch that seems to address more outdated API calls [2]. I wanted to keep this upload minimal because stretch is already frozen, but going forward to buster this is definitely something I would look at. > Either way I think we should take the time to investigate the > maintenance status and either give the package to Debian QA team if > noone is interested in adopting it while we're doing an upload here. What is the proper course of action? I've just read through some of the pages from the QA team and it seems like an email to m...@qa.debian.org might be the first step [3] .
