Package: libpango-1.0-0
Version: 1.44.7-3
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

it seems the package libpango1.0-0 has been renamed to libpango-1.0-0. This
made apt removing some manually installed packages (with dpkg) like dropbox and
Minecraft-launcher on upgrading the held back packages like libpango and
nautilus.

For example dropbox can not be configured any more, as libpango1.0-0 is now
unavailable:

# dpkg -i dropbox_xxx.deb
[...]
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of dropbox:
 dropbox depends on libpango1.0-0 (>= 1.36.3); however:
  Package libpango1.0-0 is not installed.

dpkg: error processing package dropbox (--install):
 dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
[...]

There are probably more dpkg packages provided by 3rd party that depend on
libpango1.0-0 so i assume an transitional package would be a good idea.
