   Bug#1117550: Riseup-vpn co-maintenance   
   22 Feb 26 21:00:02   
   
   From: nilesh@debian.org   
      
   Hi,   
      
   > I've been a regular user of Debian for about 4 years and a user of riseup   
   vpn for almost 2 years.   
   > I've compiled riseup from source before it became a package in Debian.   
   However, I have only rudimentary C++ programming skills and barely made a QT   
   application for a hobby project.   
   > But I'd love to start contributing to the debian project and therefore help   
   co-maintain riseup-vpn to the best of my abilities. Let me know how to proceed   
   further, if its alright with you.   
      
   Please note that I don't get mails on any bug report I (or anyone else)   
   file(s) by default - it was only by chance that I saw this. Please CC me in   
   future if   
   you want me to read your mail/want a response.   
      
   Do you have debian packaging experience - or are at least familiar? If not, I   
   am unsure if co-maintenance would be a lot of help for me.   
      
   But, at least so we start somewhere, could you check if my fix[1] for bug   
   report #1124472 works?   
   The full context is at the same bug report. If you could confirm this to be   
   working, that'd be quite helpful for me.   
   (Note that this is on stable with the version of the same in stable).   
      
   Additionally, if you could also check if it works on an unstable system (with   
   the version in unstable without any workarounds), that'd be nice too.   
      
   Note that we would need pristine/clean systems to check this. So ideally a VM   
   with default clean debian install with cinnamon.
