Well that's all very well and good, but a great deal of the time the
changelog only says something like 'version bump'-- because it's a
*Gentoo* ChangeLog, not the *application* changelog.
Which, if you're interested enough to want to know the contents of, you
should go to the application's homepage (linked from the ebuild, or
packages.gentoo.org), where it is usually published.
