| CMooney | Hi, is there any mileage in me packaging pdftk-java (https://packages.ubuntu.com/cosmic/pdftk-java) to 18.04.02. I seems to be available to later versions of Ubuntu but not the LTS release. I've never packaged a deb before, but it seems simple. I just downloaded the Cosmic deb and installed but had to install some extra packages that apt required. | 14:54 |

| Eickmeyer | Hey everyone! I messaged the Release mailing list, and the MOTU mailing list, but we're in desperate need for some packages to get uploaded and updated. I thought this would get done before Feature Freeze, but that hasn't happened. Please see bugs 1816673, 1818372, 1818368, 1818369, 1818370, 1818366, 1809024, 1818373. | 22:12 |

| fossfreedom | Eickmeyer, as mentioned previously none of those bug reports has details of what you want sponsoring. Details of the package - a ppa upload, lintian checks, check-all-the-things run etc need all to be in the bug description | 23:16 |
| Eickmeyer | fossfreedom: Does it matter that only two of those should require that since the others are already in the repo? | 23:56 |
| * Eickmeyer obviously has no idea what he's doing. | 23:56 | |
| fossfreedom | I can only go with my experience - everytime I uploaded a package - even if it was just an update - I had to include all those details in the bug description | 23:58 |
| fossfreedom | once you have package upload rights - then obviously you don't need to file a bug report ... but you get into the routine of running the usual lintian, check-all-the-things, building on proposed repo via sbuild etc | 23:59 |
