Have you clearly expressed your intention to NMU, at least in the BTS? If that didn't generate any feedback, it might also be a good idea to try to contact the maintainer by other means (email to the maintainer addresses or private email, IRC). and When doing an NMU, you must first make sure that your intention to NMU is clear. Then, you must send a patch with the differences between the current package and your proposed NMU to the BTS. The nmudiff script in the devscripts package might be helpful. Anyway. > in contrib, with practically no reverse depends, part of a 3300+ > packages "transition"? So what need is there to hurry then if there are no rdepends besides calibre, which is py2 and thus needs the py2 version of it. > anyhow, i cancel this NMU..
