Package: dict
Version: 1.12.1+dfsg-4
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainer,

Please, consider replacing recommendation of gawk for virtual package awk (e.g. 
mawk, original-awk, gawk). That, of course, if you consider gawk not to be 
absolutely needed for proper dict functionality. I have been successfuly using 
dict for years, although original-awk is installed instead of gawk.

Kind regards,

Ricardo
