+Tag: debian-changelog-file-missing-or-wrong-name
+Severity: error
+Check: debian/changelog
+Explanation: Each Debian package (which provides a /usr/share/doc/*pkg*
+ directory) must install a Debian changelog file in
+ /usr/share/doc/*pkg*/changelog.Debian.gz
+ .
+ A common error is to name the Debian changelog like an upstream changelog
+ (/usr/share/doc/*pkg*/changelog.gz); therefore, Lintian will apply
+ further checks to such a file if it exists even after issuing this error.
