+Tag: syntax-error-in-debian-changelog
+Severity: warning
+Check: debian/changelog
+Explanation: While parsing the Debian changelog, a syntax error was found. If
+ you have old changelog entries that don't follow the current syntax but
+ that you want to keep as-is for the historical record, add the line:
+ .
+ Old Changelog:
+ .
+ with no leading whitespace before the legacy entries. This line and
+ everything after it will be ignored.
