reassign 804141 src:avahi
retitle 804141 Please use NEWS as the upstream changelog
tags 804141 + patch
thanks

Dear avahi maintainers:

This package currently uses "ChangeLog" as the upstream changelog.

There are two problems with that:

* The ChangeLog file is created from scratch at every build, which makes
the package not to be reproducible.

* The file does not really contain the history of avahi changes.


The attached patch fixes this by using the NEWS file instead.

Thanks.
