Bug#346171: gcc-4.0-base: Not installing changelog.Debian properly

["Nelson A. de Oliveira" <naoliv@gmail.com>]

Package: gcc-4.0-base
Version: 4.0.2-6
Severity: serious
Justification: Non native packages must provide changelog.Debian (section 12.7)

Hi!

Today, after upgrading the packages cpp-4.0 g++-4.0 gcc-4.0 gcc-4.0-base
from version 4.0.2-5 to 4.0.2-6, I saw that there was no
changelog.Debian.gz file on /usr/share/doc/gcc-4.0-base

Discussing on #debian-devel (some people had the same issue) and after
some investigation, I saw this:

I downloaded the package gcc-4.0-base_4.0.2-6_i386.deb and saw that the
changelog.Debian.gz file is there.

"aptitude reinstall gcc-4.0-base" installed the missing
changelog.Debian.gz

Downgrading to revision 4.0.2-5 all the packages, I saw that there was a
changelog.Debian.gz there
(/usr/share/doc/gcc-4.0-base/changelog.Debian.gz)

Dist-upgraded again, installed all packages with version 4.0.2-6, and
again, no changelog.Debian.gz

Looking at this, it's clear that there is something not OK on the
upgrade 4.0.2-5 --> 4.0.2-6.

I don't know if the problem is on cpp-4.0, g++-4.0, gcc-4.0 or gcc-4.0-base,
so I am reporting it against gcc-4.0-base.

Thank you very much!
Nelson
