RPM Changelog format

Hello Axel et al,

I'm running F12 and noticed an update from atrpms wouldn't display properly
in the GUI update manager. It said the following:

The developer logs will be shown as no description is available for this
update:
Could not parse header: 'Axel Thimm <Axel.Thimm [at] ATrpms>', expected:
'Firstname Lastname <email [at] account> - version-release'

It appears it's parsing the %changelog since no official update description
is available in the yum repo.

This is for nvidia-graphics-3:190.42-42.i386. Would it make sense to change
your build script or spec-file editor to add the version-release on each
%changelog entry? This way it will show something in the GUI.

Yes, but this is still a bug in the parser, as the missing version is
still a valid changelog line.
