The Problem
Maybe it isn't important enough, but the Apt packages of VSCodium do not expose a changelog, resulting th following error on install/updates...

apt-listchanges: Reading changelogs...
Calling ['apt-get', '-qq', 'changelog', 'codium=1.96.3.25013'] to retrieve changelog
apt-listchanges: Unable to retrieve changelog for package codium; 'apt-get changelog' failed with: E: Failed to fetch changelog:/codium.changelog  Changelog unavailable for codium=1.96.3.25013

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Just follow the instructions here to add VSCodium to your Apt sources
  2. Create /etc/apt/listchanges.conf with following content...
[apt]
frontend=mail
which=both
email_address=root
email_format=text
confirm=false
headers=false
reverse=false
save_seen=/var/lib/apt/listchanges.db
  1. Execute apt update && apt install vscodium or if already installed apt update && apt upgrade it a new release is available.
  2. See error

Expected behavior
Not to see that error (it also blocks other downloads for a specific amount of time), on the other hand, it whould be nice to have at least a changlog which maybe just contains a link to an external changelog (like this)

Desktop (please complete the following information):

  • OS: Ubuntu 22.04 LTS
  • Architecture x64
  • Version codium=1.96.3.25013
  • App Manager DEB (Apt)
  • Sandboxed no
