This package is among the few that still use source format 1.0.
Please upgrade it to source format 3.0:

I am uploading a NMU to DELAYED/10 to fix this. The debdiff is attached.

Hello Bastian,

Thank you for the contribution and your work to improve Debian.  I
appreciate NMUs!

However, I would prefer not to do this to Netmaze.  I have people that
send me patches on Github from time to time, and this makes it
significantly more difficult for non-Debian contributors to participate.

Personal opinion: Source format is duplicitive of features already in
git for packages that are maintained in git, and makes collaboration
with others more challenging, especially in a case like this.

Is there a way to remove from delayed?

Yes. I will do so. If you don't mind, I will add an explicit 1.0 format.

Cheers,
Bastian

Incidentally, I got this:

DELAYED/2-day/netmaze_0.81+jpg0.82-16.2_source.changes is already present on target host:
10-day/netmaze_0.81+jpg0.82-16.2_source.buildinfo
Either you already uploaded it, or someone else came first.
Job netmaze_0.81+jpg0.82-16.2_source.changes removed.

Maybe the upload for the explicit 1.0 format tried to go in to 2-day but
got rejected?  Not quite sure.
