Title:
  changelogs not displayed

Status in update-manager package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  For the last few weeks, update-manager fails to show the changes for
  new packages. Running it from a terminal, I see:

  ~ $  update-manager 
  /usr/bin/update-manager:28: PyGIWarning: Gtk was imported without specifying a version first. Use gi.require_version('Gtk', '3.0') before import to ensure that the right version gets loaded.
    from gi.repository import Gtk
  /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/UpdateManager/UnitySupport.py:29: PyGIWarning: Dbusmenu was imported without specifying a version first. Use gi.require_version('Dbusmenu', '0.4') before import to ensure that the right version gets loaded.
    from gi.repository import Dbusmenu, Unity

    from gi.repository import Dbusmenu, Unity
  Exception in thread Thread-1:

    File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/UpdateManager/Core/MyCache.py", line 376, in get_changelog
      changelog = self._get_changelog_or_news(name, "changelog")
    File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/UpdateManager/Core/MyCache.py", line 245, in _get_changelog_or_news
      "https locations with username/password are not"
  UpdateManager.Core.MyCache.HttpsChangelogsUnsupportedError: https locations with username/password are notsupported to fetch changelogs

  So, IDK exactly when the new version was pushed out, but that error's
  nicely self-diagnosed at least: good job!  :)
