[ Mohammed Adnène Trojette ]
* uscan: allow the path for downloaded files to be specified. Thanks Steffen
Moeller for the patch. (Closes: #439060)
* debsign: work in $TMPDIR (if set) or /tmp. (Closes: #420472)

* debchange:
+ Add an option to not modify the trailer line when editing or
appending changelog entries (Closes: #435980)
+ Make -r use the distribution specified in the previous changelog entry by
default (Closes: #364510)
+ Use the package changelog to determine version information for the NEWS
file by default (Closes: #316662)

to allow non-interactive changes to the distribution and urgency without
adding a changelog entry (Closes: #442267)

Combining -r and -D on a changelog that's not UNRELEASED now
causes a warning and does not change the distribution (Closes: #443081)

(Closes: #442630)
