Ok. Thanks everyone for the quick answer. Now, by looking at the bugs
reported against aptitude I understand that there are
quite a few issues with changelogs.
I was mainly using the UI, in which changelog (Chift+C) worked (I was
experiencing #587775) and today I noticed that this also stopped working
(#669569). Then I noticed that the CLI is also brokend. So.. yeah...
I'll just wait for things to get better.
