I thought so too, but then life kicked in: I am currently doing a late-in-life bachelor, and that swallows all my focus in waves of time. So no, apology not accepted, because that was on me ;-) > That's OK, I now took some time to create a new release for mptcpd on > Debian including this patch, and that's when I found out there was > another issue caused by ell 0.69.

Correct: I added a "Breaks:" hint in newest libell* package, against older releases of libmptcpd* - which seems to be what you are asking for confirmation on. > I then sent the new version to Debian Mentors. > > https://mentors.debian.net/package/mptcpd/ > > Do you think you could sponsor this small update please? If not, I > understand, I can ask someone else. I don't do sponsoring - because I find it awkward how exactly the responsibility is then split. What I prefer instead is long-term collaboration: Would you like to have me on board as a co-maintainer of the mptcpd package in Debian? I have zero experience with mptcp as a protocol, but have glanced at it curiously over the years. I also have no experience with the codebase of the mptpd project. What I can offer is experience with packaging, and - as you've noticed already - trust and access to releasing final packages to Debian. - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist & Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ * Sponsorship: https://ko-fi.com/drjones [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private
