Bug#1053696: Upgrading Python packages showed numerous ancient changelog entries

Show all headers | View raw

Package: apt-listchanges
Version: 4.0
Followup-For: Bug #1053696
X-Debbugs-Cc: rra@debian.org

Same thing happened with the following upgrades:

Unpacking gcc-12 (12.3.0-10) over (12.3.0-9) ...
Unpacking libgcc-12-dev:amd64 (12.3.0-10) over (12.3.0-9) ...
Unpacking cpp-12 (12.3.0-10) over (12.3.0-9) ...
Unpacking gcc-12-base:amd64 (12.3.0-10) over (12.3.0-9) ...

apt-listchanges displayed what I think is the entire gcc changelog,
including the entries for 12.3.0-9 which were already installed.

It's not happening with every package, though. I'm not sure yet what the
common pattern is, unless it's packages that have multiple package names
in their changelog.
