Hello! I've found a bug in the dhcpcd5 package[0]. I've submitted a patch[1], and I'd like to look at getting it included in the official package, not least so I can stop maintaining my own local patches. However -- unlike when I've gone through this process after reporting bugs in other packages -- the maintainer here doesn't seem to be monitoring or responding to the BTS.
[0]: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1008059 [1]: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1008059#34 Can anyone give any advice about what my next steps might be if I want to get this patch made more widely available? I'm not a Debian developer, and as best I can tell I'd need to have developer privileges already to be able to kick off a non-maintainer upload. And I don't think I currently have the spare bandwidth to do justice to becoming a developer (I'm already the maintainer of a few Cygwin packages, plus all of the other obligations of life...). I am, however, very happy to engage with discussions about patches and approaches. Please keep me on the To/Cc list for any replies; I'm not currently subscribed to this list. Adam
