[csw-maintainers] Upstream check for sourceforge not working?

[William Bonnet]

Hi Roger

Could you please tell me which packages have problems ?

There are a some packages which have a problem with the upstream check. 
There are at least two known bugs.

. If catalog name is different from garname, then the maintainer will 
not always be reported accurately.

. Some url are just not working...

I'm still working on a new version. Maybe for early february.

This can be normal... once you have run check-upstream, a timestamp is 
created. If you run gmake check-upstream again, it will not report 
anything if the version has not changed. You should do a gmake clean 
before running it again.

cheers
