Bug#551326: packages.debian.org: web address for changelogs and copyrights don't contain a version epoch

And this is a problem because? Please notice that the filename of a deb package doesn't contain the epoch neither, and this is the reason why the epoch isn't relevant for unique version numbers, it's just relevant for sorting.

And this is a problem because? Because it's easier to build an URL just from version number, without stripping the epoch. Please notice that the filename of a deb package doesn't contain the epoch neither I have a bug about it, too. I see this report doesn't qualify for 'normal', probably 'wishlist' suits better. -- Eugene V.
