Package: apt-listchanges
Version: 2.85.11
Severity: wishlist
Hi.
IMHO having the reverse order (--reverse) per default would make much more sense
as one follows the changes chronologically (and not reverse in time).
So...
1) I'd suggest to either make reverse the default (or even better: internally
swap the meaning of reverse)
2) Add support for reverse in debconf, so that users are asked for their
preference.
Cheers,
Chris.

Changes:
apt-listchanges (3.14) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Add `--no-network' option that can be used to disable calls to
`apt-get changelog' (closes: #866583) and document it in the man page.
* Rework handling of the LESS variable: instead of overriding it, detect
if it contains harmful settings, and try to disable them by appending
`-+E' or `-+F' options (closes: #867144).
* Improve handling of configuration file by debconf-helper.py:
+ refactor the script and prepare for further changes;
+ increase priority of the `apt-listchanges/which' question to medium;
+ set the debconf's `seen' flag for items that already exist in the
configuration file;
* Add debconf support for the following configuration options:
`--no-network', `--reverse' (closes: #707668), `--headers',
and `--email-format'. Re-order the debconf questions.
* Depend on python3-debconf (closes: #867126) and check if the debconf
module can be successfully imported before running debconf-helper.py
in debian/config.
* Remove the `-k 60' option from po4a.cfg to disable generation of
outdated Spanish and Italian man pages (closes: #842996).
* Fix a typo in man page and unfuzzy translations.
* Update README.Debian and the man page to make it clear that in the
default installations only the NEWS entries are displayed during
upgrades (LP: #1662550).
* Update *.pot and .*.po files.
* Update Polish translations.
* Add debian/NEWS entry for the recent changes.
