[SOLVED] How do i contact a maintainer?

Hello
how do i contact Morten Linderud?
They are maintaining the package 'python-nbxmpp'
https://archlinux.org/packages/communit … on-nbxmpp/
Version 4.2.0-1 of python-nbxmpp broke after a recent update which renders gajim completely useless
https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/77901?p … hon-nbxmpp
https://archlinux.org/packages/community/any/gajim/
Version 4.2.1 fixes it but it seems the maintainer Morten Linderud hasn't updated it yet.
https://dev.gajim.org/gajim/python-nbxm … 6c537b4607
I was unable to find any emails to contact the maintainer
Please help

Be patient while waiting for the bugreport to be processed...
FWIW #hashtag PKGBUILD

It was flagged out of date two days ago.  Why do you think you need to send a personal email already?  If you can't be patient, fix / rebuild it yourself.

If you haven't found any email for the maintainer, you clearly have not looked ... at all.  I'm not going to give you his email as 1) that'd be giving you a fish, when you need to learn to fish, and 2) it really doesn't seem justified to spam his email for a package that has been outdated for two days ... which happen to have been a weekend.

Edit:
1. https://dev.gajim.org/gajim/python-nbxm … 75ef698f3c
You don't have to recompile anything to apply that
2. Are you the reporter of https://dev.gajim.org/gajim/python-nbxmpp/-/issues/139 ?
