A!  A version 5 d/watch file is in rfc822-style: needs completely different
parser as in versions < 5.  I guess an old parser would indeed always choke
when confronted with a >=5 d/watch file...  :(   And it seems the
https://mentors.debian.net/package/<packagename> generator is using e.g.
devscripts 2.25.15+deb13u1 , and not devscripts 2.25.22~bpo13+1 nor devscripts
2.26.5 ...

OK, for your package this would mean it's probably just fine.  However, I
believe we've found an issue in the https://mentors.debian.net/ backend...

Bye,

Joost
