Lintian tag: debian-changelog-file-missing-or-wrong-name

Type: error

Description (from lintian-explain-tags)

Each Debian package (which provides a /usr/share/doc/*pkg* directory) must
install a Debian changelog file in
/usr/share/doc/*pkg*/changelog.Debian.gz

A common error is to name the Debian changelog like an upstream changelog
(/usr/share/doc/*pkg*/changelog.gz); therefore, Lintian will apply further
checks to such a file if it exists even after issuing this error.

Please refer to Changelog files and release notes (Section 12.7) in the
Debian Policy Manual for details.
