Lintian tag: no-changelog

Type: error

Description (from lintian-explain-tags)

A Debian package that provides a /usr/share/doc/*pkg* directory must
install a changelog file.

For native packages the best name is /usr/share/doc/*pkg*/changelog.gz.

For non-native packages the best name is
/usr/share/doc/*pkg*/changelog.Debian.gz.

This tag may also be emitted when the changelog exists but does not
otherwise resemble a Debian changelog.

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