This Cygwin release has a breaking change to drop text mode output of
rc files with CR-LF line terminators to allow tests to succeed and for
compatibility with other systems and files as decided a few years ago.

Please test this package as extensively as possible, especially if you
are a dialog developer, Cygwin package maintainer, or *texlive* user
as this package is used with all *texlive* installations.
If no issues are reported within a couple of weeks this package will be
upgraded to current.

As there are multiple components and many changes each release please
see below or read /usr/share/doc/dialog/CHANGES after installation:
