That's what all the packages in the Debian GIS team still use because uscan in trixie doesn't support version 5 (only the backport does).The development of version 5 features has almost certainly caused this regression with older watch file versions.But no, my DDPO page currently has zero filled cells in the Watch column (there was a small amount remaining yesterday, and I thought there could be a pattern found there, but it now looks like they were just stale) and my packages use a mix of d/watch versions.The uscan errors are gone from DMD now too.

It appears that uscan in DDPO still works for some packages that use watch version 4 but most packages don't seem to be showing it.
For example, this person's DDPO dashboard [1] shows the uscan version for python-gphoto2 which uses version 4 but doesn't show it for the rest of the packages that use version 4
