Hi Andreas,

the list you mention can be read and understood by a developer.
However a sysadmin or just a home user using your CODE packages just would like
to see the major highlights of the expected changes, f.e. CVE fixes, bug fixes
or feature updates.

That is worded nicely here:
https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/#document-ch-source
"Changes in the Debian version of the package should be briefly explained in
this file"

And apparently the file that covers it:
https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/#s-changelogs

I'm not a linux packager but I suppose that in debian/ubuntu, the changelogs
will likely never be an automated task of a build system, rather a manual task
for the maintainer releasing a package update.
