For example: http://packages.debian.org/changelogs/pool/main/i/iceweasel/current/changelog Now Debian contains iceweasel 3.5.12 (were 3.5.9, 3.5.10, 3.5.11). When 3.6.* replaces 3.5.* debian changelog won't contain any records about a few uploads which *were done*. Many bugs were closed by them, but result changelog won't contain these records/bugreport nubmers.
