Hi all,
From quite sometime aptitude changelog has been giving pain. Before
when I used to do 'aptitude changelog $somepackage' it used to also
get/deliver changelog from experimental. Now though even if I have
specified that the changelog is to picked from 'experimental' it does
not do unless and until I give the specific version as well.
Just as an e.g. case in point :-
$ apt-show-versions -a linux-image-3.0.0-rc4-amd64
Not installed
linux-image-3.0.0-rc4-amd64 3.0.0~rc4-1~experimental.1 experimental
ftp.us.debian.org
No stable version
No testing version
No unstable version
linux-image-3.0.0-rc4-amd64 not installed
As can be seen that the kernel image I am interested to know about is
in experimental .
If I run :-
$aptitude changelog linux-image-3.0.0-rc4-amd64
the output I get is :-
linux-2.6 (2.6.39-2) unstable; urgency=low

Ah, see now we get the correct version. I do not know if this is a
change within aptitude or a bug. For me it seems to be a bug.
