Package: apt-listchanges
Version: 2.74
Severity: important
When apt-listchanges cannot run (e.g. because of bug 435674), the
user misses all the changelog information (which may contain critical
information, such as some NEWS announcements). So (in particular
because breakage due to python occurs too frequently), it is important
that apt-listchanges runs in a wrapper with few dependencies (e.g.
only the libc) so that it can warn the user if the changelog/news
information cannot be displayed and let the user abort the
installation.

no it's not, because in stable, such thing do not occur. Note that
apt-listchanges will show you the changelogs you missed next time you'll
upgrade the packages, because he did not recorded that.
There is no issue here.
