On the release team side, we're not exactly sure what could break, or
how badly, if we were to try and publish Bookworm with this package…

Therefore, I've just uploaded an NMU, splitting the Maintainer field
into Maintainer + Uploaders, picking developers in order.

Source debdiff attached.


By the way, the declared VCS isn't up-to-date, and lacks tags for recent
uploads (last tag is debian/0.6.6-2, testing and unstable have 0.6.8-1
instead).


Cheers,

Bug#1036959: rasdaemon: invalid Maintainer field

[Mattia Rizzolo]

Source: rasdaemon
Version: 0.6.8-1
Severity: serious

v0.6.8-1 of this package has this in d/control:

Maintainer: Russell Coker , Taihsiang Ho 


This is against Policy as there should only be one entity in this field.


Also, as you noticed, this confused DDPO (actually carnivore) a lot...
