Follow-up Comment #1, bug #15364 (project freeciv): The following would be a valid watch file for gna.org downloads (replace the whole content of the old watch file):
version=3 # stable releases http://download.gna.org/freeciv/stable/ freeciv-(.*)\.tar\.gz # beta releases and release candidates #opts=uversionmangle=s/-/~/;tr/A-Z/a-z/ \ # http://download.gna.org/freeciv/beta/ freeciv-(.*)\.tar\.gz The part for beta and RCs (commented) does some magic to the version number so that * release candidates are sorted after beta releases * beta and release candidates are sorted before stable releases when comparing version numbers the Debian way: 2.1.X < 2.2.0~betaX < 2.2.0~rcX < 2.2.0 < 2.3.X Instead of .tar.gz also .tar.bz2 should work for newer versions of Debian and derived distributions.
