Bug#750929: uscan: please add option to disable downloading upstream signature

[Graham Inggs]

Package: devscripts
Version: 2.14.2
Severity: wishlist
File: /usr/bin/uscan

Hi Maintainer

Uscan checks for common upstream signatures even if pgpsigurlmangle is
not present in d/watch.
Please add an option to disable this behaviour if it is known not to work.

d/watch from package p4vasp[1] follows:

version=3
opts=dversionmangle=s/\+ds//,downloadurlmangle=s/summary/finish/,filenamemangle=s/.*p4vasp-(\d)-(\d)-(\d+)/p4vasp-$1.$2.$3.tgz/
\
http://p4vasp.at/index.php/downloads/viewcategory/2-source-code/ \
/index.php/downloads/summary/2-source-code/.*p4vasp-(\d)-(\d)-(\d+)

Attempting to download any file after the downloadurlmangle rule
results in the 12MB source tarball being downloaded again.

Regards
Graham
