Package: php5
Version: 5.6.0~beta4+dfsg-4
Severity: wishlist

5.6.0~beta4+dfsg-4's changelog reads:
>     * Fixed regression introduced by patch for bug #67072
>     * Fix regression introduce in fix for bug #67118

Please specify the issue tracking system hosting referenced reports when that ITS is not ours. In this case, these are in the ITS of PHP/upstream. Other changelog entries have such ambiguities, but I'm not asking for a cleanup of old versions.

By the way, "introduce" should read "introduced".

By the way 2, these entries redefine the changelog. You could say "Fix 2 unspecified recent regressions" rather than bothering with such vague pseudo-entries.
