Sigh @ out-of-tree kernel modules…

At least ia64 has a non-libc6-dev package, libc6.1-dev instead. I guess
the Provides is sufficient at the moment, but if that's turned into a
versioned dependency at some point, that won't fly.

I'm not sure whether it might make sense to just pull build-essential,
which would do the job on all architectures, without risking getting
unsatisfiable dependencies.

Mraw,
