Package: devscripts Version: 2.15.1 Severity: normal File: /usr/bin/uscan I've tried passing the --compression=xz option to uscan, but it doesn't appear to pass that on to mk-origtgz.
With the u-boot watch file: version=3 opts=repacksuffix=+dfsg1,uversionmangle=s/-rc/~rc/g,dversionmangle=s/\+dfsg.*//g \ http://ftp.denx.de/pub/u-boot/ u-boot-([\d\.].*)\.tar\.bz2 Running uscan: uscan --compression=xz u-boot: Newer version (2015.01) available on remote site: http://ftp.denx.de/pub/u-boot/u-boot-2015.01.tar.bz2 (local version is 2014.10+dfsg1, mangled local version number 2014.10) No files matched excluded pattern: board/dave/PPChameleonEVB/fpgadata.c Successfully downloaded updated package u-boot-2015.01.tar.bz2 Successfully repacked ../u-boot-2015.01.tar.bz2 as ../u-boot_2015.01+dfsg1.orig.tar.bz2, deleting 17 files from it. It simply repacks the tarball as bz2 file. I've also tried with "--compression xz" with no change. If that gets fixed, it would also be very nice to be able to pass that via opts=compression=xz in debian/watch.
