Package: dosemu
Version: 1.4.0+svn.1828-2+b1
Severity: important
I've noticed that there are some Debian patches to dosemu that are
generally applicable (e.g. spelling fixes in manpages) but haven't
been applied upstream. I'm guessing that someone forgot to send them?
I'm working on merging these ones now, but in the future, could you
please try to remember to send such patches to
[email protected] ?. (Is there a place in debian/
where you can record the fact that we want them sent to that address?)
Thanks.

Package: dosemu
Version: 1.4.0+svn.1997-1
README.source should be for modifying the package itself. It should be
any package uploader's duty to forward patches upstream. Given the use
of DEP-3[1] in Debian, it should be easy to see what has or hasn't been
sent upstream in the future.
Since all the non-Debian-specific patches for dosemu were taken upstream,
I'm going to mark this closed.
Thanks!
