I don't know how many packages this is impacting, but the watch file for
epoptes, which works with stretch's devscripts (2.17.1), is also failing
to find a new version on the tracker.debian.org and udd.debian.org
pages. It's a little distracting...


Thanks for all your work on QA infrastructure, this is a relatively
small annoyance in an overall tremendously useful system!
