Maintainer here.

Where did you hear that http://pyyaml.org/wiki/LibYAML is no longer the 
home page?  It’s still linked from http://www.yaml.org.  I could certainly 
believe that the project has moved, but I would prefer to see at least one 
verifiable statement from upstream about this somewhere.

I’m skeptical about the debian/watch change.  GitHub always implicitly 
generates tarballs from Git tags, but (as usual for software with an 
autotools build system) they don’t match the contents, let alone the 
hashes, of the ones on pyyaml.org.  We’ll have to see what the maintainers 
bless as canonical in the next release.

As for the patch itself, I haven’t yet attempted to determine for myself 
whether it’s correct, and I’m inclined to wait for upstream to do so on 
the GitHub issue you filed, unless there’s some indication that they’re 
not going to respond in a timely manner.

Thanks,
Anders
