You can run dh_installchangelogs with the upstream's changelog file as an argument. Thus the hint to the man page. :) The CHANGELOG file will then be moved and renamed automagically. If you would change that final issue your package would be relatively perfect. > If the above lines of code (renaming the CHANGELOG to changelog) are > acceptable, I'd rather have the 1.1.0 solution than using an epoch.
