This is the changelog for the spec file/RPM package, not the upstream
code.  So each time there is a new Fedora package, it would get
updated.

It's orthogonal to the ChangeLog file in the package, although in the
era of distributed version control and nonlinear history, ChangeLogs
probably don't make much sense.
