[Pkg-mozext-maintainers] Bug#762310: amo-changelog currently pointless

[David Prévot]

Package: mozilla-devscripts
Version: 0.39
Severity: normal

Hi,

As can be seen in /usr/share/doc/xul-ext-password-editor/changelog.gz,
the output is terrible: lists are not honored, and limited to the first
page available on the website.

Furthermore, the manpage advises to use debian/changelog.upstream, maybe
using the already documented (in uscan(1) and DEP-12) debian/upstream
directory would be interesting, and installing debian/upstream/changelog
without the need of writing an override_dh_installchangelogs target
would be worth it (feel free to upstream this last request directly into
debhelper if it makes sense).                            

Regards

David
