We don't have access to the official repository on Github. We've had 
done it otherwise. For the taking over part it seems atagar replied 
already, great.

That's right. atagar: what about this: it seems you already created a 
separate branch with the change needed by the onionshare folks (nice!). 
Would you mind creating a point release (or 1.9) so the Debian folks can 
pick that up, including the Python 3.10 compatibility fix as well? I 
think that would be the easiest short-term solution to the problem hefee 
came up with.

Thanks,
Georg
