Re: Is there an updates mailing list with change logs?

I use apticron (http://packages.debian.org/squeeze/apticron).

It runs a daily cronjob that does a apt-get update and then emails you if there are any upgrades available. The email includes the recent changeling entries.

Hi there.

My current work-flow of running synaptic, reloading, marking upgrades, viewing history, cherry-picking updates I'm interested in and viewing the changelogs for each, (or if they fail to download, "gunzip -c xyz/changelog.Debian.gz | less) sucks.

Is there an updates list I can subscribe to so that the updates, complete with the changelog entry for the updates, get mailed to me when they're available.

I realise it's going to depend on their availability on my local mirror, so as an alternative, could it be bundled with the update, or available in semantic along side the history entries.

I'm just brainstorming here - feedback welcome.

Is there a package that does this already?
