Do not do that. It is very confusing for anyone that doesn't know beforehand about this. Please write in the changelog what you *did* to the package. If you want to write down the bug title, fine, but please do it in a way that makes it clear what you mean: * Fix for "Silently changes to bind to localhost only" or something like that. > > (Closes: #280026, #280128, #280553). > > Comment out the OPTION line in /etc/default/portmap. I see you did write down what changed... but the first line is still too misleading. Please consider using something like what I suggested... > >The changelog is misleading. > > Please see above. Changelogs are a document for everybody, not just for the current maintainer... so please consider changing the way you write the bug titles to the changelog. It works for you, but it is not clear enough to many others... -- "One disk to rule them all, One disk to find them. One disk to bring them all and in the darkness grind them.
