Package: apt-listchanges
Version: 2.71
Severity: grave
Tags: patch
Justification: renders package unusable
After last apt-listchanges upgrade, and doing after that
an upgrade from experimental I got the following Traceback:
Traceback (most recent call last):

if apt_pkg.VersionCompare(match.group('version'),
NameError: global name 'apt_pkg' is not defined
this is due to a missing "import apt_pkg" in DebianFiles.py.
