Thanks for your response. The update involves getting the source from a different project than the one in your version, so it means changing all of the files, not just debian/. I do have a freshly-minted salsa account. Perhaps I could fork your project, make all the necessary changes to the source files and the debian/ files and submit a merge request from that? (I've done a very limited amount of work with git, more than enough to know there are gaps in my knowledge of how best use git.)

Sorry for the delayed response. I was planning to orphan this package, but I wanted to update it before I do that.

There is a git repo for the package here:

https://salsa.debian.org/dilinger/gnome-shell-extension-no-annoyance

If you can update that and submit a merge request for that, I'd happily take your updates. Or, if you don't have a salsa account and/or don't want to deal with that, a patch (diff -urN) of just the debian/ directory.

I took the opportunity to learn enough about Debian packaging to package the updated fork at https://github.com/jirkavrba/noannoyance by taking a snapshot of that repo and modifying the current files in debian/. The package installs and runs fine on my own machine. I would be happy to contribute this package but am a complete newcomer to the Debian developer community and don't know how to best make the contribution. I don't want to burden anyone with my ignorance, and will happily follow any pointers, advice or instructions.
