Package: apt-listchanges
Version: 3.27
Severity: normal

The --filter option to apt-listchanges (and the corresponding
configuration file system), which is intended to be used with the log
frontend, can't possibly work. It causes a crash with a traceback when
it is used because the code to implement uses methods that aren't
available on the class. I already know the fix -- adding a missing
mixin to the class definition -- and will be committing it when I have
salsa access, but I am filing this bug for the record so that others
can find it if necessary.
