Package: apt-listchanges
Version: 4.8
Severity: normal
I currently have kmod and libkmod2 34.2-2;
kmod and libkmod2 34.2-2+b1 are available.
When I want to upgrade kmod (and libkmod2 as a consequence),
apt-listchanges displays:
apt-listchanges: Changelogs
---------------------------
kmod (34.2-2) unstable; urgency=medium
* kmod.initramfs-hook: if compressed modules have been copied to the
initramfs and CONFIG_MODULE_DECOMPRESS=n (which is not the default
in Debian kernels) then also copy the compression libraries needed
by kmod to load them. (Closes: #1099801)

--- Binary NMU of: kmod (34.2-2+b1)
* Binary-only non-maintainer upload for amd64; no source changes.
* Rebuild to enable GCS on arm64
The "kmod (34.2-2+b1)" entry is expected, but not the "kmod (34.2-2)"
one as kmod 34.2-2 is already installed.
This looks different from bug 1085722 as
• apt-listchanges displays a single old entry;
• the version of the binary packages is the same as the version of
the source package;
• the source package kmod hasn't been renamed (in case this matters).
Note that other upgrades that just consist of a "Binary NMU" +b1
(e.g. dbus) do not have this issue, which seems specific to kmod.
