Hi Olaf and Dima, Dima, if it's alright with you can I please take care of this bug? I've head I need an RC Bug NMU process for the "demonstrates skills and knowledge of process" section of my eventual DD application.
I'm treating this as an NMU because while https://salsa.debian.org/debian/gnuplot-mode/blob/master/debian/control#L4 states that this is a Team Emacsen package https://salsa.debian.org/debian/gnuplot-mode/blob/master/debian/control#L8 it's in Debian/collab-maint and not Team Emacsen team namespace. If you'd like I can move the repository to our namespace, but please let me know if this is the case!

It seems like it would be, because RC bugs like this aren't supposed to be solved using backports. Regards, Nicholas
