1) I actually wondered about it. It was a transitional package introduced in 
4.0, but in fact lucid did have the old package.
So there isn't an upgrade path issue from precise-1 to precise, but there is 
one from Lucid to Precise (LTS-LTS).

I restored it, even if Lucid is EOL, we should give users the new
package upon upgrade, good catch!

2) I removed it, I don't care too much about the watch file, but since it is 
fixed in a later release, it would be nice to allow people apt-get source the 
guest-additions and use the uscan command.
(a plain uscan doesn't work because of upstream changes, but the new script is 
better than the old one anyway, even if it needs to be called manually because 
both of them don't work anymore with iso files)

there is a .2 upload on my ppa, feel free to rebase into the previous .1
:)
