Seems a weird issue with the way that log is generated. I have to check on
that. The real changelog in the repo has -15.49 which is dated 10-22.
The 10-28 date belongs to -15.50 which is missing the release date in
that case.

Ok, thanks. So I guess if there still is a problem there, it best
should go into a new bug as it likely is a new/different problem.
