Package: jbidwatcher
Version: 1:1.0.2+dfsg-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
Recent changes by ebay render jbidwatcher mostly unuseable for German users
(at least, and many other non-US users, too).
Apparently this is caused by the following combination:
- Ebay requires US users to offer Paypal or credit card payment
- German users rarely offer these, but everybody uses wire transfers
- Thus ebay.com doesn't include offers from ebay.de
- Jbidwatcher relies on parsers for ebay.com (which now fail)
Just from what I figured from the forums.
Upstream is already working on that, but for the 2.0 versions.

Yes, but it was removed from Debian. CCing the maintainer. I think
the package is available through volatile.
