Package: tracker.debian.org Severity: wishlist Hi,
some information in packages can get quickly outdated like VCS links, homepage addresses or the information about the actual uploaders of team maintained packages. It is often neither practical nor useful to do mass-uploads just for changing an outdated VCS link. Please allow overriding certain values in tracker.debian.org. For instance tracker already knows what packages are maintained by a certain team like the Java team. It would be very convenient if every Git and Browser link could be overriden like that https://salsa.debian.org/java-team/${SourcePackageName} This would allow teams to drop the optional VCS fields but the information were still visible in an important place like tracker.debian.org and could be comfortably maintained in a web-based application. This change would also allow to better reflect who really maintains a package by replacing the current list of uploaders with active team members without having to do a source upload. In the past several members who were mentioned as uploaders in hundreds of packages went MIA. Such a change would allow us to change the information immediately. Regards, Markus
