Package: dkms Version: 2.1.1.2-6 Severity: minor Currently dkms depends on gcc, which in turn depends on the latest gcc version available (e.g.: gcc-4.5). However, when installing any linux-headers-package, the specific gcc version with which the image was built is automatically pulled in (e.g.: gcc-4.4).
To avoid multiple gcc installations (especially on systems that only have a C compiler for the purpose of building drivers), could dkms just depend on something provided by all gcc versions (for example, c-compiler)?
