Package: dpkg
Version: 1.21.12
Severity: wishlist

Hi Guillem,

dpkg's changelog.gz keeps growing. For the changelog.Debian.gz,
debhelper has started pruning old entries. At this time, the changelog
contributes one 7th of dpkg's Installed-Size and a third of its .deb
size. For development systems, one typicalls has four copies of it. I
think it would be worth investigating possible reductions:

a) Is it really necessary to keep changelogs until 2009?
b) Consider reducing the copies by using symbolic links to the instance
   in the dpkg binary package.

Thanks for considering

Helmut
