You reply to subscription confirmation mails that you have not asked for?
Seriously...

I was expecting somehow that either the Debian maintainer or the upstream
maintainer of linuxtv-dvb-apps thought that it was a good idea to receive
Debian BTS mails on his mailing list.

If that's not the case, someone should unsubscribe again (or I can do it
for you). Ccing the debian maintainers to verify.

Cheers,

Debian Maintainer (me), thinking it is good for upstream to receive user updates of frequencies of their local TV stations which we are receiving in the BTS.

Mark,

While receiving dvb-apps updates on upstream is a good idea, I don't think that
subscribing one list to the other is the proper way for it. If we use that logic,
we would need to subscribe all kernel ML's (LMML, acpi, alsa, ...) at LKML.
This would just add more traffic, mixing different subjects.

As you'll be receiving those requests and patches, the better is for you to
forward us the patches you receive and send us upstream patches based on
the reports you're receive, keeping your package in sync with upstream, while
saving us for any internal discussions that it may be pertinent only to the
Debian ML.

Well the Debian linuxtv-dvb-apps isn't really a mailing list, rather an alias where bug reports from users and other interesting stuff is forwarded about the dvb-apps application.

We aren't talking about a lot of traffic, there hasn't been any internal discussions and we have had 5 reports in the last 12 months..

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?pkg=dvb-apps;dist=unstable

I'm happy to onforward, but there can be a lag of upto a couple of months.

Please do it for me.

Hope I haven't made much work for anyone,
