Dear list (again :-)), thank you very much for helping so far --
I have now another problem: the upstream url is something like <http://stsdas.stsci.edu/astrolib/pywcs-1.10-4.7.tar.gz>, but the URL <http://stsdas.stsci.edu/astrolib/> just gives some errors, preventing the watch file from working directly. However, the upstream url is mentioned on the page <http://trac.assembla.com/astrolib/> and if I follow <http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/maint-guide/dother.en.html#docs>, I should therefore use something like -----------------------------8<----------------------------------------- # watch control file for uscan version=3 http://trac.assembla.com/astrolib/pywcs-(.+)-.+\.tar\.gz debian uupdate -----------------------------8<----------------------------------------- as the "debian/watch" file, right? <http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/maint-guide/dother.en.html#docs> | Normally with a watch file, the URL at http://sf.net/gentoo is ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ in my case, this is http://trac.assembla.com/astrolib | downloaded and searched for links of the form <a href=...>. The | basename (just the part after the final /) of each linked URL is | compared against the Perl regular expression pattern (see perlre(1)) | gentoo-(.+)\.tar\.gz. Out of the files that match, the one with the ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ in my case, this is pywcs-(.+)-.+\.tar\.gz | greatest version number is downloaded and the uupdate program is run | to create an updated source tree. However, "uscan" always tells me "no matching hrefs for watch line"? What do I wrong here, and how could the problems be solved?
