Title:
  dch -a no longer updates name, email and timestamp

Status in “devscripts” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  In precise, doing dch -a would update the name, email and timestamp in
  a changelog.

  In quantal, this is no longer the case, even when running it on a
  changelog that has someone else as the name and email.
