Interesting. I just took your exact lines, created a fake debian/changelog (with version 1.9f-7) and got: $ uscan --verbose -- Scanning for watchfiles in . -- Found watchfile in ./debian -- In debian/watch, processing watchfile line: ftp://ftp.genetics.wustl.edu/pub/eddy/software/squid-(.*)\.tar\.gz -- Found the following matching files: squid-1.9a.tar.gz squid-1.9b.tar.gz squid-1.9c.tar.gz squid-1.9d.tar.gz squid-1.9e.tar.gz squid-1.9f.tar.gz squid-1.9g.tar.gz Newest version on remote site is 1.9g, local version is 1.9f => Newer version available from ftp://ftp.genetics.wustl.edu/pub/eddy/software/squid-1.9g.tar.gz -- Downloading updated package squid-1.9g.tar.gz ... So I guess the watch file syntax is correct. Maybe some network problem at your side or at ftp.genetics.wustl.edu? gregor -- .''`. http://info.comodo.priv.at/ | gpg key ID: 0x00F3CFE4 : :' : debian: the universal operating system - http://www.debian.org/ `. `' member of https://www.vibe.at/ | how to reply: http://got.to/quote/ `- NP: Tom Waits: All the World Is Green
