I often fix errors in my changelogs a posteriori when I find them. I think that if a package was never uploaded to unstable, the changlog should not mention an upload to unstable :) So I would recomment fixing. Actually, now that backports.debian.org is official and Squeeze is released, we will have more headaches with changelogs. For instance, should the changelog of the upstream branch mention that the package was backported ? Currently, I keep a different changelog for each branch, because I am mostly using Git now. But in the packages in the Subversion repository, managing branches is a bit more complicated, so the “linear” way may fit better. And to be comprehensive, let's not forget contributions form Ubuntu. One entry in the latest versions's changelog, or one full changelog entry where the upload is not targetted at unstable ?
