Hi Manuel,

TL;DR: Please grant me cwidget team membership on Salsa so we don't
have to NMU it. Or just do an upload of cwidget with the patch from
#1015925.

I know you're busy with RISC-V and other stuff, but please do me a
small favour and add me to the cwidget team on Salsa, probably via
https://salsa.debian.org/groups/cwidget-team/-/group_members

Background:

There are currently RC bugs in aptitude and cwidget which both cause
aptitude to FTBFS with GCC 12:

  https://bugs.debian.org/1015925
  https://bugs.debian.org/1012895

Both bug reports have patches by pabs (Cc'ed).

Without having the cwidget bugs (#1015925) fixed, I can't fix the
aptitude one (#1012895).

Currently you're the only "cwidget team" member on Salsa. I've
requested team membership there a few days ago, so I can do proper
"Team uploads" for cwidget, too. Otherwise pabs or me would have to
NMU cwidget. And I think having a second uploader for cwidget would be
good in the long run anyway, especially because aptitude is its only
library user.

Other options beside the NMU are (obviously) that you do a quick
upload of cwidget with pabs' patch from #1015925.

(Sent from my non-debian address to your non-debian address due to the
current GMail fuckup which causes tons of false positive mail
rejections by GMail, especially with mails forwarded by the BTS.)

		Kind regards, Axel
