I downloaded the package from mentors.d.o, the most recent 6 changelog
entries are:

     roxterm (1.20.3-1) experimental; urgency=low
     roxterm (1.19.4-1) unstable; urgency=low
     roxterm (1.19.3-1) unstable; urgency=low
     roxterm (1.19.2-1) unstable; urgency=low
    *roxterm (1.18.5-3) unstable; urgency=low
     roxterm (1.19.1-1) unstable; urgency=low

Apparently only the 1.18.5-3 is currently in sid.  Debdiff also
indicates the other entries are newly introduced.

1.18.5-3 was released chronologically after 1.19.1-1 (although that
technically wasn't released in Debian) to backport the most important
bugfix from 1.19.1. Is version number order more important than
chronological order? I've got a vague memory that I might have tried
keeping the versions in order but lintian or something complained about
the dates being out of order but ICBW.

Do you suggest I merge all the 1.19.* and 1.20.* entries? I guess I need
to do something anyway because I've just realised that even if I don't
merge the entries in changelog I should have used -v1.18.5-3 with
dpkg-genchanges.
