Enforcing updates of the changelog makes it possible to check details of
upstream changes with;
# rpm -q --changelog nautilus
By not enforcing these changes, one can do;
# cat /usr/share/doc/packages/nautilus/NEWS
I see a big difference between those two variants. Not, as your package is
installed, but if you check for example:
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/games/openSUSE_11.1/repodata/repoview/freeciv-0-2.1.8-4.2.html
You can see the changelog there even BEFORE you get the package downloaded and
installed.
This qualifies for me as a very good reason to have this information in the RPM
Metadata.
