This is a different thing than what is mentioned in the bug you followed up to. The packages from the regular pool are unaffected by this bug. The thing you report is actually covered in http://bugs.debian.org/622224 (which was reported after your mail, so you couldn't have found it) I'm investigating on the issue why the extraction of the changelogs don't work anymore, though I get the impression that working on closing this bug would be much more fruitful. I can't figure out in a quick way why the extraction doesn't work anymore (it might be related to the latest lenny point release, but even that's uncertain), and as we need to switch over to use the already extracted files that ftpmasters do offer us so we can include the changelogs for security and backports packages, investing time into the rewrite will give the better outcome. Though - this will take a bit more time, so I can just ask for a bit more patient.
