It wont, development targets unstable.  And even if you're doing a
backport to jessie-backports that's not a reason to declare compliance
to an old version of policy.

pacakges.qa.debian.org doesn't updated d/watch info anymore; it used a
backend that's now removed (it use a thing we called "mole"), wheras
tracker.d.o gets the uscan data from UDD.

Have you found a package on package.qa.debian.org that doesn't show an
error for uscan?

And how would that change make it work "on" packages.qa.debian.org
anyway?
