No, that's great. > Last week, I also made the build reproducible. I used the date from > the change log rather than __DATE__.

Do > ping me if you fell I should be more verbose there. I usually try to write the changelog for the user / admin and not for the packager. The commit message can contain more technical / low- level information if needed. Listing every file that has been changed in the changelog is definitely too verbose. So, the current level is fine with me. Another thing that I try to do is list the changes first that are more important for the user. Though that fails with the multi-person changelog format. > I am unsure how far you'd like to go in the clean up: > > We remove everything up to Jessie in the postinsts, since it is > required to upgrade there first, right?

When you remove the compare-versions stuff, be careful to check which ones are still needed during new installs and change the version-check accordingly.
