You have been subscribed to a public bug by Ubuntu Foundations Team Bug Bot (crichton):

When installing official packages via update-manager, the change log is
available from a tab in the GUI (next to description).  These change
logs are not available for PPA packages.  Could this facility be added?
When discussed on IRC #launchpad, there was some concern this might blur
the boundaries between official and PPA packages and result in unfounded
trust in the PPA packages.
