The package is registered but when it tries to add a new maintainer fails because maintainer::add() is checking that the user is lead of the package. Line 542 package-database.php: if (empty($auth_user->admin) && !user::maintains($auth_user->handle, $package, 'lead')) { return PEAR::raiseError('maintainer::add: insufficient privileges'); } Another side effect is that the code to update the number of packages from each category never gets executed. I've commited a patch and manually fixed your account. Tomas V.V.Cox
