[pkg-ntp-maintainers] Bug#625569: closed by Peter Eisentraut <petere at debian.org> (Re: Bug#625569: /usr/share/doc/ntp/NEWS.gz should be installed as upstream changelog)

[Sandro Tosi]

reopen 625569

well, ntp doesn't install 'changelog' as upstream changelog, so use
that (if NEWS is not the right file) and install it correctly.
