Package: devscripts
Version: 2.10.5
Severity: minor

Dear Devscripts team,

I think uscan fails when it gets a site which forces it to see only
gzipped output. For example, see the attached watch file; it doesn't
seem to work.

I did try to put some instrumentation into uscan to discover this, but
my Perl-ignorance prevented me from adding a handler for gzip myself.

Thanks!

Kumar
