Bug Description

I have apt-listchanges set up to show only the news, not the full changelog:

$ cat /etc/apt/listchanges.conf
[apt]
frontend=pager
email_address=root
confirm=0
save_seen=/var/lib/apt/listchanges.db
which=news

However, that does not stop apt-listchanges from showing and emailing me the full changelog on each upgrade.
This bug can be fixed by installing the Debian package, so it seems to be caused by a Ubuntu-specific patch.

This is with Ubuntu 14.04. The bug was also present in Ubuntu 12.04.
