Package: fontforge
Version: 0.0.20050911-1.dkg.0
Severity: normal
Tags: patch


it looks to me like the current debian/watch doesn't actually track
the source for fontforge (perhaps because upstream isn't terribly
consistent with providing links).

the following watchfile seems to work for me, although uscan doesn't
seem built to handle multiple upstream tarballs very well:

version=3
opts=uversionmangle=s/^/0.0./ 
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=103338&package_id=114329 
.*/fontforge_htdocs-(.*)\.tgz\?download
opts=uversionmangle=s/^/0.0./ 
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=103338&package_id=114328 
.*/fontforge_full-(.*)\.tar\.bz2\?download 



Given that upstream actually provides the sources as two different
tarballs, perhaps they should be broken into two source packages in
debian?  This would help clean up the current packaging a bit, i
think.

If you're interested in this, i'd be happy to build a new version of
the package as an example and point you to it.  i think i'd also be
willing to co-maintain if that was something that you wanted.

Regards,
