Hi, The update-upstream-status script for UDD does not appear to consider sepwatch. sepwatch is a subversion repository which contains seperate watch files submitted by those that are not maintainers of the package but have produced an updated watch file. This allows the new watch file to be used immediately instead of waiting for the next upload, reducing the watch file error count and providing upstream information again. If a watch file is present in the sepwatch repository, it should be used in place of the watch file in the package when updating data for UDD. A new column could be added to the upstream table to indicate the source of the watch file used. https://wiki.debian.org/qa.debian.org/HowToHelpWithFixingWatchFiles#How_to_help_with_fixing_debian.2Fwatch_files Thanks, Iain. -- e: i...@fsfe.org w: iain.learmonth.me x: i...@jabber.fsfe.org t: EPVPN 2105 c: 2M0STB g: IO87we p: 1F72 607C 5FF2 CCD5 3F01 600D 56FF 9EA4 E984 6C49
