But, as Gauvain correctly noted, the real changelog is:

discover (2.0.7-3ubuntu1) edgy; urgency=low

  * Merge from debian unstable:
     - discover.dtd: Change device->model default to 'default'
     - Miscellaneous changes to allow default entries for vendors

discover (2.0.7-3) unstable; urgency=low

  * QA upload.
  * NMU ACK. Closes: #305042. Thanks to Jeroen and David, see below.
  * sysdeps/stub/stubs.c: Fix FTBFS on GNU/kFreeBSD (and any system using
    sysdep/stubs/). Closes: #364863. Patch by Robert Millan
    <email address hidden>, thanks.
  * doc/discover-modprobe.8, debian/discover.postrm: Removed "/usr/local" from

So my request is to display the debian/changelog in launchpad without replacing the Debian maintainer by the Ubuntu maintainer.

Thanks,
