 Thanks 
  
 While that file contains info about custom templates, I could not find 
 anything about custom scripts. 
  
 I have browsed devscripts code and looking at 
 /usr/share/perl5/Devscripts/Uscan/WatchSource.pm seems that internal 
 name for custom scripts is "updatescript ", so I tried 
  
 Update-Script: debian/repack-local 
  
 in debian/watch version 5 file and seems to work as I expected 
 (updatescript should have also worked). 
  
 debian-watch-4.pod mentions that scripts (not calling them custom 
 scripts, the part using that name was dropped but is still present in 
 uscan man page). 
  
 So this seems a documentation issue. Bug report filed 
  
 https://bugs.debian.org/1119152 
  
 Regards,
