+         or <literal>Acquire::Changelogs::URI::Override::Origin::<replaceable>ORIGIN</replaceable></literal>.
+
+         The value should be a normal URI to a text file, expect that package specific data is
+         replaced with the placeholder <literal>CHANGEPATH</literal>. The
+         value for it is: 1. if the package is from a component (e.g. <literal>main</literal>)
+         this is the first part otherwise it is omitted, 2. the first letter of source package name,
+         expect if the source package name starts with '<literal>lib</literal>' in which case it will
+         be the first four letters. 3. The complete source package name. 4. the complete name again and
+         5. the source version.
+         The first (if present), second, third and fourth part are separated by a slash ('<literal>/</literal>')
+         and between the fourth and fifth part is an underscore ('<literal>_</literal>').
+
+         The special value '<literal>no</literal>' is available for this option indicating that
+         this source can't be used to acquire changelog files from. Another source will be tried
+         if available in this case.
