I see that jquery-lazyload is listed on the mentioned [0] page as
"upstream: error".

On my maintainer page [4] the watch column is correctly displaying
"1.9.3" in magenta (indicating a newer upstream version is published).
Also, on the package's QA page [5] no error is shown about the watch
file being broken and the following is listed: "A new upstream version
is available: 1.9.3, you should consider packaging it."

I'm wondering if there is an issue or not?
