I do not know what happened at that time.

But I can say that ekiga 4.0.1-2, scheduled to enter testing, has three 
files for ekiga-dbg package, cf. current 
http://packages.debian.org/unstable/ekiga-dbg, click on "list of files" 
links at the bottom:

[...]
/usr/share/doc/ekiga-dbg/changelog.Debian.gz
/usr/share/doc/ekiga-dbg/changelog.gz
/usr/share/doc/ekiga-dbg/copyright

So this issue does not exist on current unstable version of ekiga, 
scheduled to enter testing.

I added the "fixed" line because it was asked by 
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=709687#39.
