I did so:

$ cat debian/watch
Version: 5
Source: http://festvox.org/packed/festival/
Matching-Pattern: @ANY_VERSION@/voices/festvox_kallpc16k@ARCHIVE_EXT@


... and it fails as well:

Ok. It should be possible based on the `HTTP site (recursive directory scanning)` example from `man debian-watch`. Not entirely sure what you are missing. The only notable difference I spot is that a @VAR@ pattern is used in `Source` as well. Might be needed to trigger the code path you are looking for.

If that does not do it, then I am out of ideas.


Thank you for the hint as well - I should be more carefully with the format.

Kind regards
    Andreas.



No worries from me. I am personally not entirely sold on the "inheritance" idea from the `Header` stanza myself, but that feature is probably not aimed at me.

Best regards,
Niels
