True, but "aptitude changelog ..." seems to require "deb-src ..." entries:

Without "deb-src ..."

# aptitude changelog grub-pc
Err Changelog of grub-pc
E: You must put some 'source' URIs in your sources.list
E: Changelog download failed: Download queue destroyed.
E: Couldn't find a changelog for grub-pc

With "deb-src ..."

# aptitude changelog grub-pc
Err Changelog of grub-pc
E: Changelog download failed: 404  Not Found
E: Couldn't find a changelog for grub-pc
