I don't think it's mandatory that we save the information, but it certainly would be nice. I'd like apt-listchanges to show me the binary NMU changelog. I've used that information before on the local system, and that's a lot more convenient than going to the web and trying to do archeology on what happened. Saving the binary NMU changelog in a separate file feels like the right solution to me. -- Russ Allbery ([email protected]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
