When using a distro that provides real changelogs for package updates (e.g. Ubuntu-based distros, openSUSE Leap, Fedora), you can see the changelogs for each package entry on Discover's updates page when doing online updates. However when doing offline updates, Discover gathers all the package entries into one big one, and that one doesn't show any changelogs. Clearly PackageKit has this data available; we just need to show it to the user when doing offline updates as well as online updates.
