[Pkg-qof-maintainers] Working watch file for QOF

The "error" on the QA page for pilot-qof was annoying me:
http://qa.debian.org/developer.php?package=pilot-qof
WW Exp column.

So I decided to have a go at a watch file for pilot-qof and once that was 
working, I worked out a watch file for QOF too:

#format
version=3
# watch control file for uscan
# Full Site with pattern           [Version  [Action]]
opts="uversionmangle=s/0.6.0-pre1/0.5.99+0.6.0pre1/" \
http://sf.net/qof/qof-(.*)\.tar\.gz debian uupdate

The upstream version mangler is because uscan thinks qof-0.6.0-pre1.tar.gz is 
NEWER than qof-0.6.0.tar.gz so I mangled it to use the debian package 
convention for the pre-release.

Should be OK to put in when QOF 0.6.1 is released - probably later this month. 
(I'm allowing time for 0.6.0 to go into testing once gnotime 2.2.2-3 reaches 
it's 10 days.)

The watch file seems to have been removed from gnotime after being added in 
2.2.0-1.

This one works for me locally:
#format
version=3
# watch control file for uscan
# Full Site with pattern           [Version  [Action]]
http://sf.net/gttr/gnotime-(.*)\.tar\.gz debian uupdate

Maybe that can go into gnotime once 2.2.2-3 is in testing. :-)
(Personally, I'd rather not have any uploads for the next 7 days or until 
gnotime 2.2.2-3 and libqof1 0.6.0-2 are in testing.)
