Package: systemd
Version: 257.13-1~deb13u1
Severity: minor
Currently, the Debian release of SystemD does not install the upstream
changelog document. This file is part of source releases, as the file
‘./NEWS’.
The recommendation to install the upstream changelog document is specified
in Policy §12.7:
If there is an upstream changelog available, it may be made available
as "/usr/share/doc/package/changelog.gz".
The ‘dh_installchangelogs’ packaging rule can make this easy.
