Fixed. Now up-to-date.

If upstream has an even release, odd development model, one might
use a construction like [02468] in the match rule.

nikwi doesn't seem to report a version in the tarfile from the
upstream location. This package might be better served without unless
upstream can be convinced to change their release naming convention.

Updated SVN to point to the new upstream page. New Upstream release:
$ uscan --report-status
Processing watchfile line for package renpy...
Newest version on remote site is 6.6.0, local version is 6.3.1.ds1
renpy: Newer version (6.6.0) available on remote site:
http://www.renpy.org/dl/6.6.0/renpy-6.6.0-full.tar.bz2
(local version is 6.3.1.ds1)
Would also benefit from dversionmangle, but that's not working for me
