Description Pacho Ramos 2016-07-30 09:22:19 UTC
ChangeLog file only tells people to rely on git log... then, maybe it would be interesting to simply don't ship it at all :/

Thanks a lot

Or it might make sense to generate it upon make dist, using ax_generate_changelog:

Comment 2 André Klapper 2021-05-25 17:46:24 UTC
GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org.
As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org
which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately
quite limited so not every ticket can get handled).

If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent
and supported software version, then please follow
  https://wiki.gnome.org/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines
and create a new enhancement request ticket at
  https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/caribou/-/issues/

Thank you for your understanding and your help.
