Just for fun I whipped up a quick hack to allow Devuan as package origin,  
to at least make accessible the changelogs of genuine Debian packages 
which are retrieved via the merged Devuan repository lists, and of installed 
genuine Devuan packages. 

A decent patch however should introduce a configurable list of origins and 
associated changelog URLs, as already mentioned in a todo comment in the 
original source.
 
Cheers,
Urban
