Bug Description

Binary package hint: apt-listchanges

If an existing apt-listchanges window is there, and one updates few
more packages, then apt-listchanges decides to not show. It should
spawn another window or something.

Configuration given at /etc/apt/listchanges.conf
[apt]
frontend=xterm-pager
email_address=root
confirm=1
save_seen=/var/lib/apt/listchanges.db
which=news headers
