It would seem that（barring DFSG issues) the Ubuntu maintainer should be told about the situation and asked to help maintian both as it should not be too much more work, IIUC. Situations like this should not be allowed to happen as Ubuntu developers should be notified that the Debian package has been orphaned and it would be good for Ubuntu-Debian relations to keep packages from diverging from Debian which is supposed to be upstream barring any major issues. cheers, Kev -- | .''`. == Debian GNU/Linux == | my web site: | | : :' : The Universal | debian.home.pipeline.com | | `. `' Operating System | go to counter.li.org and | | `- http://www.debian.org/ | be counted! #238656 | | my keysever: pgp.mit.edu | my NPO: cfsg.org |
