I suppose that this package was sent to proposed first with the
appropriate changelog entry and later it was moved to updates without an
additional changelog entry. Then I wouldn't say that the changelog is
misleading. But maybe someone else can tell you what should be in the
changelog. Anyway, I wouldn't use the changelog to determine the
repository providing a package.
