I have the same problem with lxc and lxcfs all maintainers are more or less unresponsive , I did the PR, I waited, I asked and finally I used PP power to merge it and built it [1] . My point here is while we have maintainers that maintain the package and don't like that proven packagers change it, we have many others which don't even reply , so is not easy decide what to do .
