Hi,

I am having a problem to update upstream

when running uscan --download --verbose

 Scanning for watchfiles in .
-- Found watchfile in ./debian
-- In debian/watch, processing watchfile line:

http://sf.net/orfeo-toolbox/OTB-(\d[\d\.]+)\.(?:tgz|tbz|txz|(?:tar\.(?:gz|bz2|xz)))
uscan warning: In watchfile debian/watch, reading webpage
  https://qa.debian.org/watch/sf.php/orfeo-toolbox/ failed: 500 Can't
connect to qa.debian.org:443
-- Scan finished


I am behind a proxy and I checked that http_proxy and https_proxy env vars
are set properly. But still didn't work.

Does anybody know a workaround?
