Until a package has been orphaned by the MIA team, the question is NMU vs salvaging: https://wiki.debian.org/PackageSalvaging https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/developers-reference/pkgs.en.html#package-salvaging If a minimal, targeted fix is possible (with a quilt patch) then an NMU is faster, and doesn't implicate the uploader with long-term responsibilities. The allowed changes are narrow, and strict. If that's not possible, then salvaging the package is the only way to save it and its reverse dependencies. Salvaging implies adoption. I took a look at the available forks and I suspect that salvaging the Debian package is what will be required. >> BTW, are you subscribed to this mailing list?
