How reproducible:
Always


Steps to Reproduce:

Comment 2 Woi 2018-02-14 17:25:37 UTC 
As explained upstream:
package changelog is not (yet) supported by dnf. I confused this with update information, which dnfdragora is able to show.
I'm still looking for a good explanation about the differences, but at least this is not a bug of dnfdragora -> close
