Package: qa.debian.org Severity: normal Usertags: ddpo One of my packages has been adopted by a new maintainer and I am the sponsor.
If you look at my packages[1] and hover the mouse over the recent upload of gnade (=1.6.2-3), the tooltip text says "1 week ago by Stephen Leake <stephen_le...@stephe-leake.org> (Uploader: Stephen Leake <stephen_le...@stephe-leake.org>)", i.e. it thinks the maintainer and uploader are the same. This is wrong; I am the uploader. The control file contains: Maintainer: Stephen Leake <stephen_le...@stephe-leake.org> Uploaders: Ludovic Brenta <lbre...@debian.org> and I did the upload, signed by my key (lbre...@debian.org). Stephen is neither a DD nor a DM, so cannot possibly be the uploader. Another package, polyorb, shows the same problem with another maintainer[3]. Because this is a new package (as opposed to an adopted package), it does not appear on my DDPO page at all. The unofficial debian-mentors FAQ[2] specifically warns against passing -e or -m to dpkg-buildpackage or debuild, so I didn't. Was that a mistake?

Consequences of this problem: - there is no Sponsored Uploads section on my page - when gnade is through the NEW queue, it will disappear from my page (polyorb is already absent from it) - I cannot easily track the packages I sponsor - I get no credit for sponsoring :) -- Ludovic Brenta. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
