Then the question is: why is the same changelog, i.e. the changelog of
sub packages with the same source package, stored for each package
individually? It could be stored once and be referenced from each sub
package. It gets deleted once all references on it vanish.
People might be able to install only one of the sub-packages.
Um, I expressed myself not clearly. Of course the package files all
contain the changelog, the normalization would only happen on the RPM DB
level.
Which cannot happen, because immutable header regions contain changelogs,
and the blob is signature and/or digest verified.
