Thanks for your interest in Debian.

It's unfortunate that the current uploader is not responsive. But if you
are indeed the developer of this application then you are in a genuine
position to update this package. Normally it makes sense to file a
wishlist bug report against the mupen64plus-qt package. Then you should
give the maintainer a chance to react. However the best way to ensure
that your package is always up-to-date is to become an Uploader.

Just prepare the update and make sure that the package conforms to
Debian's standards. (Lintian may help you) Then publish your package
somewhere. See [1] (especially point 4) for more information.

If you are new to Debian packaging then I suggest to subscribe to the
debian-mentors mailing list or join #debian-mentors on irc.debian.org
where you will find some help. As soon as your package is ready and
uploaded to some location (preferably mentors.debian.net), please follow
point 5 of the intro-maintainers guide or send a message to the
debian-devel-games mailing list. (because this package belongs to the
Debian Games Team)

I hope that helps a little

Regards,

Markus
