I see.
Well, gcc is definitely not a dependency package because it ships files:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/etc# dpkg -L gcc
/.
/usr
/usr/bin
/usr/bin/c89-gcc
/usr/bin/c99-gcc
/usr/share
/usr/share/man
/usr/share/man/man1
/usr/share/man/man1/c89-gcc.1.gz
/usr/share/man/man1/c99-gcc.1.gz
/usr/share/doc
/usr/share/doc/cpp
/usr/bin/gcov
/usr/bin/i486-linux-gnu-gcc
/usr/bin/gcc
/usr/share/doc/cpp/README.Bugs
/usr/share/doc/cpp/FAQ.gz
/usr/share/doc/gcc
Therefore, I am reassigning this bug to reportbug.
