As I mentioned before, some urls of 3rd part packages can’t be converted to a regex expression, so I think uscan may not suitable for downloading 3rd part packages. But uscan is a very powerful tool, probably we use it in other places.

I recommend reviewing the (very extensive) uscan manpage as the tool has many options for working around such cases as well as convenience modes for things like directly accessing Git repositories or interfacing with popular but known-problematic sites (SourceForge, GitHub, PyPI, NPM, Google Code). Check the examples section for some watchfile options which may be exactly like what you need for these cases. -- Jeremy Stanley
