Hi Andrius,
have you found a solution?
I managed to craft the following d/watch:
https://paste.debian.net/hidden/7ed83d37/
version=4
opts="pagemangle=s/(?:.*)(@PACKAGE@)(\.tar\.gz).*?(\d{4}-\d{2}-\d{2})(?:.*)/<a
href="$1_$3$2">/g, \
uversionmangle=s/(?:.*)\.([\d-]*)/$1/, \
downloadurlmangle=s{(.*)(\.tar\.gz)}{https://www2.mrc-lmb.cam.ac.uk/personal/pemsley/coot/dependencies/@PACKAGE@$2}";
\
https://www2.mrc-lmb.cam.ac.uk/personal/pemsley/coot/dependencies
(@PACKAGE@@ANY_VERSION@@ARCHIVE_EXT@)
I am pretty sure one can optimize it, but this seem to work too.
Best,
Alex
