Package: devscripts
Version: 2.10.61
Severity: normal
I believe uscan should return an error code of zero in the following case:
$ uscan --report-status --watchfile debian/watch
Processing watchfile line for package haskell-unixutils...
Newest version on remote site is 1.22, local version is 1.22
=> Package is up to date
$ echo $?
1
and should only return 1 if the remotce version is not the same as the local
version.
Patch to fix this attached.

Since uscan's purpose, as documented in uscan(1), is to look for newer
versions of upstream source, we return 0 when there's been a newer
version found. Applying this patch would break that behavior. As such,
I'm closing this bug.
