ncurses 5.9-4 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

ncurses (5.9-4) unstable; urgency=low

  * Create debian/libtermcap.so at build time rather than trying to ship
    it, since dpkg-source does not like to do the latter (Closes: #647253).

ncurses (5.9-3) unstable; urgency=low

  * Move the libtermcap symlinks to lib{32,}tinfo-dev (Closes: #644426).
    - Symlink libtinfo.a to libtermcap.a.
    - Use a linker script for libtermcap.so to work around ldconfig
      bug #249122.
  * Move the libtic libraries from lib*ncurses5 to lib*tinfo5
    (Closes: #644933) and their development files from lib*ncurses5-dev
    to lib*tinfo-dev.
  * Drop libticw from libncursesw5 and configure with "--with-ticlib=tic"
    to share the same tic library between libncurses5 and libncursesw5.
  * Don't mark libncurses5-dev and libncursesw5-dev as "Multi-Arch: same"
    for now (Closes: #646761).
  * Link the example programs against ncursesw rather than ncurses.
  * Add Breaks against binutils-gold (<< 2.21.53.20110910) to
    libncurses5-dev and libncursesw5-dev (see #644708).
  * Mention in /etc/terminfo/README that ${HOME}/.terminfo is the first 
    directory where ncurses looks for terminfo files (LP: #384285).
  * Obtain CPPFLAGS from dpkg-buildflags.
  * Drop the lintian overrides introduced in 5.9-2.
