That's correct behaviour as far as I can tell. This is the canonical
format as documented in the uscan manpage:

•   opts=" ... " http://URL matching-pattern [version [script]]

•   http://URL matching-pattern [version [script]]

But the manpage also says:

•   If the hrefs do not contain directories, you can combine this with the previous entry. I.e.,
http://URL/matching-pattern .

and that's the format that was used in the original watch file you
quote.

Cheers,

Jelmer
