Package: apt-listchanges
Version: 2.85.13+nmu1
Severity: minor
Tags: patch

Dear Maintainer,

at the moment a cronjob installs debian updates.
Only output on stderr will trigger an email (with the error content).
Since apt-listchanges outputs the "Reading Changelogs ..." on stderr, emails 
are sent even no "real" error occurred during installation of updates.
I think stdout would be better for that, beacause its no error.

For fixing this apt_listchanges.py line 263 hast to be changeg from:

sys.stderr.write(_("Reading changelogs") + "...\n")

to

sys.stdout.write(_("Reading changelogs") + "...\n")


Regards,
Ansgar
