Package: epiphany-browser
Version: 3.2.1-2
Severity: normal

Dear Debian folks,


could you please package upstream’s NEWS file again. It was dropped in Evolution 2.16.0-1 [1]

        epiphany-browser (2.16.0-1) experimental; urgency=low
        
        […]
        
          * NEWS: removed, its content is no more relevant.
        
        […]

but luckily GNOME packages include useful and informative NEWS files [2] nowadays.

According to #651835 [3] you need to just add NEWS to the dh_installdocs line.


Thanks,

Paul
