Tag: debian-watch-lacks-sourceforge-redirector
Severity: warning
Check: debian/watch
Renamed-From: debian-watch-file-should-use-sf-redirector
See-Also: uscan(1)
Explanation: The watch file specifies a SourceForge page or download server
directly. This is not recommended; SourceForge changes their download
servers and website periodically, requiring watch files to be modified
every time. Instead, use the qa.debian.org redirector by using the magic
URL:
.
http://sf.net/<project>/<tar-name>-(.+)\.tar\.gz
.
replacing <code><project></code> with the name of the SourceForge
project and <code><tar-name></code> with the name of the tarball
distributed within that project. Adjust the filename regex as necessary.
