Bionic linux-image-* changelogs seem broken?

Hi,

Prior to bionic, apt changelog linux-image-N.NN.0-NN-generic printed a full
changelog for the kernel package:

===
linux (4.4.0-119.143) xenial; urgency=medium

  * linux: 4.4.0-119.143 -proposed tracker (LP: #1760327)

  * Dell XPS 13 9360 bluetooth scan can not detect any device (LP: #1759821)
    - Revert "Bluetooth: btusb: fix QCA Rome suspend/resume"

linux (4.4.0-118.142) xenial; urgency=medium

  * linux: 4.4.0-118.142 -proposed tracker (LP: #1759607)

  * Kernel panic with AWS 4.4.0-1053 / 4.4.0-1015 (Trusty) (LP: #1758869)
    - x86/microcode/AMD: Do not load when running on a hypervisor
===

However, with the upgrade to Bionic, it now seems to be including the
changelog for linux-signed instead of linux, so we get a much less helpful
changelog:

===
linux-signed (4.15.0-20.21) bionic; urgency=medium

  * Master version: 4.15.0-20.21

  * Miscellaneous Ubuntu changes
    - fix permissions for installed signed kernel images

linux-signed (4.15.0-19.20) bionic; urgency=medium

  * Master version: 4.15.0-19.20

 -- Seth Forshee <seth.forshee at canonical.com>  Sat, 21 Apr 2018 17:32:56

Was this a deliberate change? Is there a way to access the old changelog
other than looking at git?

Thanks in advance!

Regards,
Daniel
