Bug Description

Series: Bionic
Package: dpkg
Version: 1.19.0.4ubuntu1

The output of dpkg-gensymbols has regressed when reporting new or
changed symbols

Previously the output stated:

dpkg-gensymbols: debian/libname/DEBIAN/symbols doesn't match completely
debian/libname.symbols

this now incorrectly states:

dpkg-gensymbols: warning: no debian/symbols file used as basis for
generating debian/libname/DEBIAN/symbols

This incorrect log message is causing issue on log parsing by the Kubuntu CI at the very least
