Package: tetex-bin
Version: 2.0.2-20
Severity: normal
During an upgrade from tetex-bin 2.0.2-15 the news (in NEWS.Debian.gz)
was not displayed. The file is present after the upgrade.
For other packages, similar problems arise from improper formatting of
the NEWS file. It needs to be like the Debian.changelog's. It looks
to me as if it does have that format, so I don't know what's going on.
It was apt-get dist-upgrade, with apt-listchanges installed and set to
output the news. This has worked with upgrades of other packages.

I could not reproduce that either. I had installed -23 and upgraded
to -30 and apt-listchanges displayed NEWS.Debian. As the submitter
didn't react for half a year I guess this is not more an issue.
Closing.
Kind Regards,
