Package: apt-listchanges
Severity: wishlist

At $work, we needed a way to direct apt-listchanges output to a file,
which we review before sending tested updates to offline systems. We were able 
to achieve this through a hack running apt with pipetty, setting the pager 
command to a script and enabling the ignore options, but we wanted a cleaner 
way to do it. So I have implemented a log frontend with a log file option and a 
filter command option. I also added an option to disable the apt-listchanges 
title. Since it was easy to add I also added a syslog frontend for 
completeness. I wasn't sure if I should use a merge request or a bug, so I have 
submitted a merge request first and submitted this bug for completeness.
