Package: dh-make Version: 0.37 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch Since it seems to be quite difficult to find out, I suggest you add an example for sourceforge access to watch.ex.
Judging from references on google [1] the example site in the patch has been allowing searches for the past 6 months or so. Since there is no official statement we don't know if this particular situation will stay this, but including it will certainly help developpers *now*.
