debian-watch-file-uses-deprecated-sf-redirector-method

The watch file seems to be passing arguments to the redirector other than a path. Calling the SourceForge redirector with parameters like project prevents uscan from generating working URIs to the files and thus has been deprecated and is no longer supported by the redirector.

The tag is present in Lintian version 2.114.163. That is the most recent version we know about.

We use semantic versions. The patch number is a commit step indicator relative to the 2.114.0 release tag in our Git repository.

You can find the detection logic for this version at commit ea05801. For merge requests, please use the latest version in the Lintian check debian/watch.
