Several things occured:

First, upstream, the http dump file was reduced from a 4MB to a 8kB,
removing the uninteresting binary part of the image. This was release
as release candidate 2. This is the only upstream change.

Then, since that dump have an unclear license, I also removed it from
the orig file using a +dfsg version.

I'm now showing the changes for unreleased versions.


Beside removing the dump, that version also fix the watch file:
Github provides taged snapshots without the extension and uscan
doesn't like that. See --rename restrictions in uscan(1).


You can download the package with dget using this command:

 dget -x
