I did so: $ cat debian/watch Version: 5 Source: http://festvox.org/packed/festival/ Matching-Pattern: @ANY_VERSION@/voices/festvox_kallpc16k@ARCHIVE_EXT@ ... and it fails as well: $ uscan --verbose --report uscan info: Scan watch files in . uscan info: Check debian/watch and debian/changelog in . uscan info: package="festvox-kallpc16k" version="2.4-2" (as seen in debian/changelog) uscan info: package="festvox-kallpc16k" version="2.4" (no epoch/revision) uscan info: ./debian/changelog sets package="festvox-kallpc16k" version="2.4" uscan info: Process watch file at: debian/watch package = festvox-kallpc16k version = 2.4 pkg_dir = . uscan info: Last orig.tar.* tarball version (from debian/changelog): 2.4 uscan info: Last orig.tar.* tarball version (dversionmangled): 2.4 uscan info: Requesting URL: http://festvox.org/packed/festival/ uscan info: Matching pattern: (?:(?:http://festvox.org)?\/packed\/festival\/)?(?:[-_]?[Vv]?(\d[\-+\.:\~\da-zA-Z]*))/voices/festvox_kallpc16k(?i)(?:\.(?:tar\.xz|tar\.bz2|tar\.gz|tar\.zstd?|zip|tgz|tbz|txz)) uscan warn: In debian/watch no matching files for watch source http://festvox.org/packed/festival/ uscan info: Scan finished Thank you for the hint as well - I should be more carefully with the format.
