Dear Carsten,

thank for your reply and your patience with me. :)

Are you sure. For example this watch file do not use "opts="
https://sources.debian.org/src/backintime/1.4.3-1/debian/watch/

Also some examples on the wikipage about "debian/watch" do not use
"opts=".

Please be aware that I don't only want to solve one technical problem
with one specific package. I want to understand the whole thing ("big
picture") to improve the documentation.

I see 3 different regex patterns in this line. Why?
