Hi,

I created an updated package for "unstable" on the mentors server:
https://mentors.debian.net/package/netperfmeter/ .

How is the procedure for submitting a backport package for buster? The
backport is probably quite easy to create, I assume it will just need an
older version of debhelper. That is, specifying the version in
debian/control and recreating the debian/compat file is probably sufficient?
