Title:
  regression in dpkg-gensymbols output on symbols changes

Status in dpkg package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in dpkg source package in Bionic:
  Fix Released
Status in dpkg package in Debian:
  Fix Released

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
