Cannot install Dropbox - depends on libpango1.0-0

See https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pango1.0/1.50.6+ds-2ubuntu1

libpango1.0-0: Layout and rendering of internationalized text (transitional package)
 ...

 This is a transitional package and will be removed in a future release.
 Third-party packages should depend on the individual libraries that they
 use instead. If another package depends on this one, please report that
 as a bug.

Based on that information I assume that this is a fault in the dropbox *.deb package.
Dropbox should not depend on libpango1.0-0, but on libpango-1.0-0

A manual install of https://packages.ubuntu.com/mantic/libpango1.0-0 may serve as a workaround.

Thank you. I have forwarded your answer to Dropbox

Paulo
