Hi there, I hope you're not trying to hurt yourself and that everything ends up well for you.

I don't think this is possible with the Gleam build tool. In your case, I would either:
a) contact the Hex team at [email protected], so that they may transfer your packages if you don't follow up in, say, a week
b) give the trusted person your hex login info

If you need help, don't hesitate to talk to someone. It could be anyone you know - a parent, a friend, a spiritual leader, a teacher. You can also use https://findahelpline.com to talk to a crisis counselor from your country. 💜

you'd use elixir and the mix task to add an owner: https://hexdocs.pm/hex/Mix.Tasks.Hex.Owner.html

#

gleam cant currently do this

#

or you could use rebar3 and do the same thing: https://rebar3.org/docs/package_management/#managing-package-owners
