No, I am not worried. I just want to know "What was fixed in this
release?" without going online.
I want debian/changelog to be a file with contents instead of
"links_to_fixed_bugreports_without_real_content.html"
It really is no effort to write
* new upstream version:
- escape and de-escape lines starting with a dot correctly
(Closes: #178492)
instead of
* new upstream version. (Closes: #178492).
