#13309 — Don't add me to your debian/control Uploaders when it is untrue

[Multipart message — attachments visible in raw view] — view raw

Hello Julian!

I noticed that you've added me to several packages as the uploader:

debian/control:
    Uploaders: Otto Kekäläinen <otto@debian.org>,


Please do not do it. I have not reviewed/uploaded (to my knowledge) any of
those packages and it is wrong to list me there as an uploader. Do not do
this for new packages and remove me from the old packages next time you
upload a new version (not urgent).

Examples:
https://salsa.debian.org/python-team/packages/pylzss/-/commit/2ab512d14967e2418cd2a96ef2df05fa2ecafc9d
https://salsa.debian.org/python-team/packages/pyls-spyder/-/commit/14ed8742292c2410b818ad3d7a03c3f1222bf1c8
https://salsa.debian.org/python-team/packages/distance/-/commit/8fa04f7788a93fae29920a495cf7963698d8a33f
https://salsa.debian.org/python-team/packages/abydos/-/commit/1485ed84b3a3d8d1e3ea11a2ca4de841d2a13e6e


Keep up working on Debian but just keep the debian/control metadata correct.

Thanks!

Dear Otto,

I'm sorry - I copied the control file for one of the packages I
started working on to get Spyder 4.x into bullseye, and it had you as
an uploader.  Apologies for including you without your agreement.  I'm
totally willing to remove your name from the uploaders field after
bullseye has released, but I'm now not sure which packages should and
shouldn't have your name listed.  Here's a list of the packages I've
uploaded which I think have your name in them; I will remove you from
all of them unless you say otherwise:

abydos
distance
paq
pyls-black
pyls-spyder
pylzss
py-stringmatching
python-jsonrpc-server
python-language-server
pyxdameraulevenshtein
syllabipy
textdistance
three-merge

Best wishes,

   Julian
