Bug Description

Binary package hint: dialog

Explanation of the Ubuntu delta and why it can be dropped:
Debian fixed only Ubuntu remaining change "Add -fPIC to CFLAGS". Let's have dialog on autosync again :)

Changelog since current hardy version 1.1-20071028-1ubuntu1:

 dialog (1.1-20071028-3) unstable; urgency=low

   * Build with -fPIC. Required by gnunet. Closes: #457263. Note that
     this is just a temporary workaround for Bug#454948. There will
     be a shared library in the near future.
   * Added Provides: libdialog-dev. Packages who build-depend on dialog
     because of its library must now depend on libdialog-dev instead.
   * Changed extended description to mention editor. Closes: #463234.

Will we have to do a transition?

Daniel: If I understand this correctly, there should be a transition but getting this version into Ubuntu won't break anything, as the stuff that will be in libdialog-dev is still in dialog (the only change is that dialog now provides libdialog-dev, in order to smoothen the transition). IMHO the best would be to just sync this (as it will help once packages start depending on libdialog-dev, for backports and such) and let Debian do the transition. Or am I missing anything?
