Package: devscripts Version: 2.22.1 Severity: wishlist The libhdhomerun package has this debian/watch file:
version=4 https://www.silicondust.com/support/linux/ https://download.silicondust.com/hdhomerun/libhdhomerun_(\d.*).tgz but due to a recent change upstream, they no longer have the version number in the HTML of the page and instead have a single .tgz link which redirects to the latest version: $ curl -i https://download.silicondust.com/hdhomerun/libhdhomerun.tgz HTTP/1.1 302 Found Date: Fri, 11 Mar 2022 19:23:40 GMT Content-Type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1 Transfer-Encoding: chunked Connection: keep-alive Location: https://download.silicondust.com/hdhomerun/libhdhomerun_20220303.tgz [...] <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN"> <html><head> <title>302 Found</title> </head><body> <h1>Found</h1> <p>The document has moved <a href="https://download.silicondust.com/hdhomerun/libhdhomerun_20220303.tgz";>here</a>.</p> <hr> <address>Apache/2.4.41 (Ubuntu) Server at download.silicondust.com Port 80</address> </body></html> I therefore changed the watch file to this so that it could parse the HTML of the 302 page: version=4 https://download.silicondust.com/hdhomerun/libhdhomerun.tgz https://download.silicondust.com/hdhomerun/libhdhomerun_(\d.*).tgz but it doesn't work because there's no way to tell uscan not to follow the redirect all the way to the tarball. If there was a way to specify something like opts="noredirects" then I could make the watch work again. Alternatively, there could be another mode entirely which looks at the Location header instead.
