Right, but I guess chances are low ...

I fixed this[1] in connection with the proposed uscan changes to enable
deletion of files (see bug #685787).

Hmmm, I tried this

opts=dversionmangle=s/([\d.]+)\.(\d+)/$1-r$2/,downloadurlmangle=s/MRIConvert_.*/mriconvert_sources.zip/ \
  http://lcni.uoregon.edu/~jolinda/MRIConvert/MRIConvert_x86-([\d\.]+-r\d+)\.tar\.gz

which ends up with version 2.0-r235.  I know that dversionmangle is the
wrong approach and it rather should be
   uversionmangle=s/([\d.]+)-r(\d+)/$1.$2/
but if I try this I do not get a match on the given download page.
 
Kind regards

      Andreas.
