Package: devscripts Version: 2.9.11 Severity: wishlist Hi,
I am trying to use uscan to watch for new releases of software which I do not used in the Debian packaged form. This implies the absence of a debian/ directory. I have the following watch file ---- version=3 http://www.splitbrain.org/projects/dokuwiki (?:.*/)?dokuwiki-([-0-9]+)\.tgz\?.* 2005-09-22 uupdate ---- uscan insists on getting an upstream version: $ uscan --report-status --watchfile watch --package dokuwiki uscan: --package requires the use of --upstream-version and --watchfile as well; run uscan --help for more details which it then promptly ignores: $ uscan --report-status --watchfile watch --package dokuwiki --upstream-version foo Processing watchfile line for package dokuwiki... Newest version on remote site is 2005-09-22, local version is 2005-09-22 => Package is up to date uscan should only insist on an upstream-version on the command line if it is not given in the watch file.
