Thanks again for your help with this RFS.  Here is a review of 534d41f:

- I think we should list Dmitry in the Uploaders: field, which would
  indicate that he may upload new versions of the package without it
  counting as an NMU

- your git history does not really give credit to Dmitry for his work.
  I'd like to suggest starting again, and doing it like this:

  + clone Dmitry's repo
  + `git merge 3` to get the new upstream version
  + revert the convert commit (but see below)
  + apply your other changes

- I also think it would be good to state in debian/changelog that most
  of the Debianisation is due to Dmitry

- your changes to the patch header do not make sense: the '3..' will not
  yield "the changes made by the Debian maintainer in the first upload
  of upstream version 3".  Please take another look at the template.

- I disagree with you about Dmitry's `convert` patch.  It just doesn't
  seem likely to me that there would be difficult merge conflicts with
  new upstream versions, and it is indeed useful to inform the user that
  convert is not available.  But I will defer to your judgement -- if
  you're sure about dropping the patch, maybe imagemagick should be
  moved to a hard dependency?

If you're able to address the issues I've raised in this message, please
remove the moreinfo tag in this bug, and don't forget to re-run `dch -r`
to refresh the changelog timestamp.

That README.md says
  This is a set of udebs to add a preseedable men to Debian installer.
  At this stage it is not complete or functional and would only be of
  intrest to colaboraters.

Back to

You still need the menu entry numbers.

I searched 
 https://lists.debian.org/debian-boot/2017/06/maillist.html
 https://lists.debian.org/debian-boot/2017/06/mail2.html
 https://lists.debian.org/debian-boot/2017/07/maillist.html
for posting from Hildred and only found
 https://lists.debian.org/debian-boot/2017/06/msg00502.html


Where are the "ask on the boot mailing list. Having done so" postings?

I'm asking for two reasons
 * Which debian-boot posting did I miss?
 * Would it make sense to retransmit or would rewrite better?

request for sponsor for installer package

[Ben Hildred]

I am writing a package for the installer to make restoring backups onto
bare metal easier. This package will add menu entries to the installer
(when preseeded). It is not ready yet as one of the things I need is menu
entry numbers. The documentation says not to just pick such numbers but to
ask on the boot mailing list. Having done so with no response, I am looking
for someone to guide me through the next steps.

Details on this part of my project are at
https://github.com/hildred/choose-profile and the readme is fairly detailed
for use cases.
