Lintian says:
  N: If the package is not maintained upstream or if upstream uses a
  N: distribution mechanism that cannot be meaningfully monitored by uscan
  N: and the Debian External Health Status project, please consider adding a
  N: debian/watch file containing only comments documenting the situation.

The upstream sources are from CVS, so i put a comment in the file documenting 
the problem, like lintian sugest. So im not sure about, have to delete it o 
leave it ?
