I'm not sure if I follow, but from what I see, you are worried that new maintainers will not take these NMU changes into account on the next revisions, right? I have an ITA opened and I'm working on a Debian revision of the package atm, and I have created a git repository (using gbp import-dscs --debsnap), which contains your NMU. Even if I weren't doing this revision, I think any other potential Debian contributor would be basing their work on the latest Debian revision found on the archives, which happen to be your NMU at this point, as can be seen by fetching the package sources on sid with apt source. Thus I'm not sure what the benefits are of keeping this bug open. Of course, I may be completely wrong :). So, do you think I should reopen it until I (or anyone else, for that matter) release a new Debian revision? Regards, David Polverari.
