It looks like the upstream author made the same mistake when preparing
an upload of his own in 
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=773416#50

I propose to let Nguyen Cong take care of fixing this so that he can
learn about quilt and have some easy entry into contributing to the LTS
team. Nguyen, feel free to get some inspiration from Gianfranco's more
verbose changelog message though. :)

Cheers,
