Source: twitter-bootstrap4 Version: 4.6.1+dfsg1-4 Severity: minor Tags: patch
Dear maintainer,
bootstrap 4 (twitter-bootstrap4) has been EOL'ed upstream, and version 5
is packaged as bootstrap-html. The current twitter-bootstrap4's
debian/watch checks against any numerical version in the remote source,
so it reports that a new 5.x.y upstream version is available:

Distracted users (like me) could be confused by this, wondering if the
version 5 of bootstrap should be packaged. The following change would
limit the version to be checked against to the 4.x branch. Could you
please consider this change:
