Is the Debian package doing this part?

No. Adding this option does build the package, and results in a libtic.so not depending on the ncurses library.

How many packages will now fail to build assuming that this dependency is present?

I'm not sure (I was only offering advice as the upstream maintainer,
rather than as a Debian packager).

well, this would only affect ncurses internal dependencies?

that's the intent.  Though of course, it's a nuisance when reusing
packaging/makefiles from a system which has the library split-up,
onto a system which does not.
