"rpm -qi" and look at the URL?

The other thing that makes source code changelogs less useful in some
cases is that they are often very verbose, with info that isn't clear to
end users.  They show changes that are often not relevant (like maybe
between release 1.2.1 and 1.2.2 they tried a fix to a bug and reverted
it - who cares in terms of RPMs?).
