A local build of grace_5.1.22-9 raised the lintian warning: "wrong-name-for-upstream-changelog".
This occurs because Debian policy dictates that the upstream changelog should be installed to /usr/share/doc/grace/changelog.gz but we install it to /usr/share/doc/grace/CHANGES.html. The relevant policy section can be found at http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-docs.html#s-changelogs
The reason why this is happening, is that we include the upstream changelog in the debian/grace.docs file in the source package which is parsed by dh_installdocs. Instead, we should use dh_installchangelogs to create a compressed, plain-text copy of the changelog.
