Thanks everyone for the quick answer. Now, by looking at the bugs reported against aptitude I understand that there are quite a few issues with changelogs. I was mainly using the UI, in which changelog (Chift+C) worked (I was experiencing #587775) and today I noticed that this also stopped working (#669569). Then I noticed that the CLI is also brokend.
