Bug Description

https://code.launchpad.net/~dbusmenu-team/libdbusmenu-qt/raring + https://code.launchpad.net/~indicator-applet-developers/telepathy-indicator/raring shouldn't have resulted in new packages at the daily PPA, but they did. Apparently this is because both changelog and control files were manually modified, so the previous filtering was not enough.

In fact, thinking about it, there is also the case where you do really want to rerelease by doing a rebuild just changing the debian/changelog, and we don't want to not rerelease if we have this change in debian/control and the debian/changelog change.

I think the best way to go it to write in the documentation to only change debian/control for this Bzr-Vcs change and be done with it. This would mean that we should revert those 2 branches to remove the change in debian/changelog.
