Hi,

I changed the "version=" attribute in my debian/watch file to value 3,
as manpage of uscan suggests, but results are wrong and DEHS has
problems with it.

debian/watch:
----------8<---------------------------------------------------------
version=3
http://catb.org/~esr/gif2png/gif2png-(.*)(\.tar|\.tgz)(\.gz|\.bz2|) debian 
uupdate
----------8<---------------------------------------------------------

An uscan run gives now:
----------8<---------------------------------------------------------
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/devel/debian/gif2png/gif2png-2.5.1$ uscan -verbose
-- Scanning for watchfiles in .
-- Found watchfile in ./debian
-- In debian/watch, processing watchfile line:
   http://catb.org/~esr/gif2png/gif2png-(.*)(\.tar|\.tgz)(\.gz|\.bz2|) debian 
uupdate
-- Found the following matching hrefs:
     gif2png-2.5.1.tar.gz
Newest version on remote site is 2.5.1..tar..gz, local version is 2.5.1
 => gif2png-2.5.1.tar.gz already in package directory
-- Scan finished
----------8<---------------------------------------------------------

With "version=2" it worked as aspected:
----------8<---------------------------------------------------------
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/devel/debian/gif2png/gif2png-2.5.1$ uscan -verbose
-- Scanning for watchfiles in .
-- Found watchfile in ./debian
-- In debian/watch, processing watchfile line:
   http://catb.org/~esr/gif2png/gif2png-(.*)(\.tar|\.tgz)(\.gz|\.bz2|) debian 
uupdate
-- Found the following matching hrefs:
     gif2png-2.5.1.tar.gz
Newest version on remote site is 2.5.1, local version is 2.5.1
 => Package is up to date
-- Scan finished
----------8<---------------------------------------------------------

What's the new way to handle "(\.tar|\.tgz)(\.gz|\.bz2|)"
(with the same flexibility)?


Regards,
Erik
