Dear Maintainer,

I have a debian/watch file that points to a .zip on PyPI:

version=3
http://pypi.python.org/packages/source/z/zope.browserpage/zope.browserpage-(\d.*)\.(?:tar\.gz|zip)

mk-orig-targz fails with the following error message:

% uscan --force-download --repack
zope.browserpage: Version (4.1.0a1) available on remote site:
  http://pypi.python.org/packages/source/z/zope.browserpage/zope.browserpage-4.1.0a1.zip

    Use of uninitialized value $mime in string eq at /usr/bin/mk-origtargz line 315.
