Hi!

intrigeri at debian.org:
> Source: torbirdy

> Before commit ff02a45 we were looking in
> https://www.torproject.org/dist/torbirdy/, where Torbirdy upstream
> release are distributed. And then uscan would repack the XPI into
> a tarball for us (I guess :)
> 
> That commit made debian/watch look at
> https://gitweb.torproject.org/torbirdy.git/refs instead. There was
> probably a good reason for it back then (e.g. simplicity!), but
> currently that cgit page has no tarball/XPI download option, so since
> a while DMD, tracker & friends have been complaining about
> debian/watch and worse, they were not able to make it obvious to us
> that 0.2.3 wanted to be packaged.

I'll look into it this week.

Cheers!
