And I login with my FAS ID and cannot "Take" the package since I am not

So I ask again what steps am I missing here? I want to take over
packaging something that is about to be removed from Fedora Linux since
it has been orphaned, I have signed the agreements, I have asked to
become a packager, and this is actually the second package I am trying
to take over.

You say you have "asked to become a packager" but what exactly
do you mean by that?

The official documentation on becoming a packager is here:

https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/package-maintainers/Joining_the_Package_Maintainers/

But actually I think the old wiki version is much more useful
in explaining how things work, especially if you're not coming
at it from the position of submitting a new package:

https://fedoraproject.org/w/index.php?title=How_to_get_sponsored_into_the_packager_group&oldid=619444

Basically you need to find somebody to sponsor you as a
packager - normally that happens as part of having your first
package review but obviously that doesn't work when you want
to take over an existing package.
