Keep an eye on your DDPO page and maintainer dashboard:

I'm not sure if there is also a keyword for new upstream releases in the
package tracker, that's generally the best approach to keeping up with a
specific package.

I had to use my own script to check all the watch files in the git
repositories I have checked out because the uscan service was broken by
the recent backport of devscripts. This issue seems to have been
resolved, but not all packages have been processed since the fix.

Because there tends to be a delay of about a day or two before the uscan
service reports a new upstream release (it cannot check all packages in
24 hours), you tend to know about new upstream releases fastest via the
upstream mailinglists.

Kind Regards,

Bas
