Dear udev maintainers, there was a short discussion on debian-qa about making smart guesses with uscan when the tarball can not be found. Paul pointed us at this bug report (#517637), where auto-generalisation was alredy suggested. For the record, I forward here the suggestion of Raphaël, about using variables (see above).
