AFAICT you have it backwards -- the other packager is the upstream developer and maintainer of the pre-existing ubuntu package. The only thing that Daniel&#x27;s package had going for it was that he had submitted it earlier, but he had not gone through the process of filing an ITP to tell other people that they don&#x27;t need to spend time on packaging it.<p>I find the whole thread somewhat cringey to read and I&#x27;m not sure why he thinks it reflects well on him.
