Package: aptitude
Version: 0.4.11.1-1
Severity: wishlist
Frequently, "aptitude changelog" fails to work because
packages.debian.org has not yet caught up with a mirror update. In
these situations, I'd like the option of having aptitude download the
package to the apt cache and extract the changelog from the package.

Version: 0.5.1-1
Hi,
I added support for local changelogs in aptitude 0.5.1. This bug
wasn't closed because for some reason I couldn't find the bug number.
There are a few corner cases where it still won't work; they should
be fixed in the next release (mostly it's that aptitude checks first
whether the package is a Debian package, so non-Debian versions will
get the "not an official Debian package" message).
Thanks for the report,
Daniel
