  1. no-upstream-changelog

http://lintian.debian.org/manual/section-2.4.html

debian/<pkg-name>.lintian-overrides 

with the following content:

# Upstream does not provide a chaneglog file
<pkg-name>: no-upstream-changelog

An example is ruby-rack-cors. If upstream does provide a changelog file, but it is not added, you can add it by using override_dh_installchangelogs in the file debian/rules:

override_dh_installchangelogs:
        dh_installchangelogs Changelog.md 

In this case the upstream Changelog is called Changelog.md.
