[02:27] <bluesabre> Unit193: any idea what's wrong with my watch file? https://github.com/Xubuntu/sgt-launcher/blob/master/debian/watch
[02:27] <bluesabre> > gbp:error: Uscan failed: In debian/watch no matching files for watch line

[02:30] <arraybolt3[m]> bluesabre: You already tried uscan -vv --download-current-version?
[02:31]  * arraybolt3[m] clones to see if I can help debug it
[02:34] <bluesabre> I notice that the list of assets seems to load in ajax-y now, I wonder if GitHub broke releases with uscan
[02:36] <arraybolt3[m]> It doesn't look like it's even finding the right links to scan.
[02:36] <arraybolt3[m]> I don't see https://github.com/bluesabre/sgt-launcher/releases/download/sgt-launcher-0.2.8/sgt-launcher-0.2.8.tar.gz anywhere in the list of scanned URLs.
[02:38] <arraybolt3[m]> Doing a View Source on the Releases page and then searching for tar.gz reveals no results.
[02:38] <bluesabre> Looks like recent breakage: https://groups.google.com/g/linux.debian.devel/c/StmWbDMsvlo?pli=1
[02:38] <bluesabre> Thankfully, there's workarounds!
[02:39] <arraybolt3[m]> Yeah, but wow. This is going to break a lot of packaging in Lubuntu too.
[02:44] <arraybolt3[m]> bluesabre: I think this is your ticket to fixing it: https://api.github.com/repos/bluesabre/sgt-launcher/releases
[02:47] <arraybolt3[m]> Just dropping that in didn't work yet though and I don't know why.
[02:47] <arraybolt3[m]> Oh, because it likes HTML code and this is not HTML. Hmm...
[02:50] <Unit193> bluesabre: GitHub is currently broken in d/watch, basically.  I have a hack that works though. :P
[02:51] <bluesabre> :)
[02:51] <arraybolt3[m]> I'm just on the verge of getting it to work, but if you have it working, do share, since much (or maybe even all) of Lubuntu's packaging is probably going to need some major overhauls now, too.
[02:51] <Unit193> Debian #1019696
[02:51] <ubottu> Debian bug 1019696 in devscripts "devscripts: uscan does not work with github anymore" [Important, Open] https://bugs.debian.org/1019696
[02:52] <Unit193> tl;dr: use /tags if you can, otherwise use a hack. :D
[02:53] <Unit193> My hack is in uscan, so you shouldn't need to modify d/watch.  I'm waiting to see what the common fix is.
[02:54] <arraybolt3[m]> ROFL "GitHub re-write rule.  Abandon all hope ye who enter here."
[02:55] <arraybolt3[m]> Well, here's hoping your fix gets officially accepted. Otherwise we are all going to have a lot of "fun" working with this curveball.
[02:55] <bluesabre> Nice :D
[02:56] <Unit193> Erm, no that won't ever be officially accepted as-is.
[02:57] <arraybolt3[m]> Well OK but it's good progress. At least someone has it working.
[03:00] <Unit193> Doesn't work for this one.
[03:01] <bluesabre> https://github.com/Xubuntu/sgt-launcher/commit/0e3aaea50b4af572a19773144f9a8d0b1eaffc01 seems to work
[03:01] <ubottu> Commit 0e3aaea in Xubuntu/sgt-launcher "d/watch: Ugly hack for GitHub releases update"
[03:04] <arraybolt3[m]> Horrible and nicely done.
[03:04] <arraybolt3[m]> It works for me over here too.
[03:09] <bluesabre> Thanks you guys for the help!
