>> LC_MESSAGES=C aptitude changelog ubuntu-base
E: ubuntu-base is not an official Debian package, cannot display its changelog.

I think this is supposed to work. Running aptitude and pressing "C" works, though

Thanks for your bugreport.

This is fixed with the attached patch. It will be part of the next regular
aptitude upload.

Cheers,
Michael

Fixed in the latest breezy version:

aptitude (0.2.15.9-3ubuntu6) breezy; urgency=low

   * src/cmdline/cmdline_changelog.cc:
     - make aptitude changelog work with ubuntu (ubuntu #15867)
   * src/generic/aptcache.cc, src/cmdline/cmdline_do_action.cc:
     - dist-upgrade ignores sticky-selections (other than "Install")
       now. this fixes a problem with held-back packages on dist-upgrade
       (ubuntu #15871)
