To help with this part, I would like to suggest the following policy for
merged packages :
The last changelog entry of a merged package should contain the list
of Ubuntu changes remaining in the package. Something like:
xxxxx (vvv-1ubuntu1) edgy; urgency=low
* Merged with Debian. Changes are:
+ Modified build-dep on libfoo to build on edgy.
+ Added .desktop file.
It would help a lot when trying to understanding changes (no need
anymore to read 10+ changelog entries to understand the reason for a
change!)
