Re: How to ignore some versions for watch file?
Dear Eriberto, and Sergio, Really thanks for your help! Yes, "downgrade" 2019 to 0.2019, is the perfect solution for my case. And searching for \. by force seems to be a more generic solution. I tried both, and both work as expected. And through this practise, I understand the syntax for watch file deeper than before. Very appreciated! > [1] https://wiki.debian.org/debian/watch > [2] > http://eriberto.pro.br/blog/2013/10/07/how-to-write-a-good-debianwatch-easily/ Eriberto maybe you can add this tip to your blog post [2]. And I'll try to add it to wiki [1] later. Cheers, -- Roger Shimizu, GMT +9 Tokyo PGP/GPG: 4096R/6C6ACD6417B3ACB1

This did it for me version=4 opts="filenamemangle=s%(?:.*?)?v?(\d[\d.]*)\.tar\.gz%shadowsocks-v2ray-plugin_$1.orig.tar.gz%,\ uversionmangle=s/(\d)[_\.\-\+]?(RC|rc|pre|dev|beta|alpha)[.]?(\d*)$/\$1~\$2\$3/" \ https://github.com/shadowsocks/v2ray-plugin/tags .*/v?(\d\.\S*)\.tar\.gz debian ^^ The only thing I changed is the extra "\.", which I tried to "highlight" above. This assumes that every version will contain at least one dot, which I think is a safe assumption given upstream's history.

You are using a rule provided by the original debian/watch template. Personally, I don't really like this format because I think it is very complex. You can watch directly the "releases" link from any GitHub project. I intend to help you with a light format. There are several possibilities. I will show you two solutions. The first solution is search for one or more digits (\d+), followed by a dot (\.), followed by any character except blank spaces (\S+). It is a Perl Regex. See below: version=4 https://github.com/shadowsocks/v2ray-plugin/releases .*/archive/v?(\d+\.\S+)\.tar\.(?:bz2|gz|xz) Note that "v" (from version) is optional (v?) and we will accept .tar.bz2, .tar.gz and .tar.xz extensions. Another way is downgrading all versions starting with 2019. In this case we can use any digit followed by any character except blank spaces (\d\S+). version=4 opts=uversionmangle=s/2019/0.2019/ \ https://github.com/shadowsocks/v2ray-plugin/releases .*/archive/v?(\d\S+)\.tar\.(?:bz2|gz|xz) There are several other solutions. In your original debian/watch (I don't like this format) you can combine the last solution. Regards, Eriberto
How to ignore some versions for watch file?
Dear mentors list, I maintain a package that previously used vMMDD as version, but now changed to v1.y.z - https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/shadowsocks-v2ray-plugin - https://github.com/shadowsocks/v2ray-plugin/tags So my question is how to ignore the old version vMMDD, and only detect v1.y.z as latest version for d/watch file? BTW. I already read a few posts regarding on d/watch file [1][2], but still didn't find a proper solution.
