Hi!<div><br></div><div>I'm slowly learning more about contributing to debian, and I'd like some advice.<br><div><br></div><div>I saw a FTBFS problem in python-mechanize, highlighted by this report:</div><div><a href="http://udd.debian.org/cgi-bin/ubuntu_ftbfs.cgi">http://udd.debian.org/cgi-bin/ubuntu_ftbfs.cgi</a></div>
<div><br></div><div>So, I started investigating, identified a fix, and found that there was already an upload in Debian which solved the problem. Yay! I've requested that the fixed package be synced to Ubuntu. But then I noticed that this package is maintained by pkg-zope and I wondered whether this fix made it into svn. I see that it didn't.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Whats the normal process for getting changes synced back into svn after a NMU upload? Should I commit this to svn to get it caught up with whats currently in the archive?</div><div><br></div><div><div>
