$ apt changelog qemu
Err:1 http://changelogs.ubuntu.com qemu 1:2.8+dfsg-3ubuntu2 Changelog
  Changelog unavailable for qemu=1:2.8+dfsg-3ubuntu2 (404  Not Found)

  Changelog unavailable for qemu=1:2.8+dfsg-3ubuntu2 (404  Not Found)

This is because the binary package's component is used to generate the
URI, but the source is in main and changelogs are organized by source.

Based upon IRC conversation with slangasek and juliank, it possibly
makes sense to flatten the pool/ changelogs to drop the component
subdirectory (with symlinks for BC) and then change apt to not use the
component in the URI generation
