Package: dialog
Version: 1.1-20120215-1
Severity: normal

Given this commandline:

    dialog --stdout --single-quoted --checklist 'select' 22 70 14 a-1 a-1 1 a-2
a-2 1

choosing options gives a result like

    'a-1' 'a-2'

which is broken, because the man page says

    --single-quoted
    Use single-quoting as needed (and no quotes if unneeded)


dialog=1.1-20100428-1 (lenny) does this correct; it gives

    a-1 a-2


The extra level of quotes means that
    VER=`dialog ...`
    case $VER in
        a-1)

etc. doesn't work anymore.
