Wchangelog-file-missing-explicit-entry

The tag is present in Lintian version 2.114.140. That is the most recent version we know about.

We use semantic versions. The patch number is a commit step indicator relative to the 2.112.0 release tag in our Git repository.

You can find the detection logic for this version at commit 25e9483. For merge requests, please use the latest version in the Lintian check debian/changelog.

Visibility: warning

The latest changelog file for this package specifies a version in the form of 1.2-3+deb8u1, 1.2-3+nmu4 (or similar) but this does not follow from a corresponding 1.2-3 changelog stanza.

This suggests that changes were merged into a single entry. This is suboptimal as it makes it more difficult for users to determine which upload fixed a particular bug.
