Dear maintainer,
According to the manpage, the --newversion should append to the
current changelog entry if the current release is UNRELEASED:
| If DEBCHANGE_RELEASE_HEURISTIC is changelog (default) and the current
| release is UNRELEASED, this will only change the version of the
| current changelog stanza. Otherwise, this will create a new changelog
| stanza with the new version.
This doesn't hold when the --distribution option is being used. Instead,
a new changelog entry is created, leaving the old one (UNRELEASED) entry
intact.
I have provided a patch that fixes tha above error.
Cheers,
