Bug#344947: kdm: NEWS file not displayed on upgrade

[Ross Boylan <ross@biostat.ucsf.edu>]

Package: kdm
Version: 4:3.4.2-4
Severity: normal

I recently upgraded from 3.3 to 3.4 in testing.  There is a
NEWS.Debian entry about KDM (and some other things), but it was not
displayed.  I have enables apt-listchanges, and in the same upgrade I
did get NEWS items about other packages.

I've seen this with other packages, and it is usually the result of
some misformatting of the entry, which is supposed to follow the same
format as the changelogs.  The format looks OK to me, but perhaps the
problem is that the line identifying the version names kdebase rather
than kdm as the package.  Since the NEWS.Debian file was installed
under /usr/share/doc/kdm/ and not under /usr/share/doc/kdebase/,
perhaps that is causing the confusion.

This would be good to fix, as displaying the appropriate NEWS items is
the way to put critical upgrade information where people will have
trouble missing it.
