You can always use -v switch building package. dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -v[version of last processed package] This way .changes file will included changelog entries from all packages published after -v[version]. Right now you should close bug manually with explanation which version fixed this problem. regards fEnIo -- ,''`.
