Package: lintian4python

Severity: wishlist

Possible description:
 The watch file is pointing at PyPI, using a http URL, not https.
 PyPI now has https enabled, you should be able to simply switch to
 https.

PyPI has been https-enabled for some time now, and has recently started
pushing hard for everyone to use https only.
While it supports PGP-signed uploads, the majority of packages aren't
signed, and it'd best for our maintainers to use https when downloading
new upstream releases.

The PyPI maintainers are encouraging everyone to use https everywhere:
