Bug#379595: dpkg-cross: please add linux-kbuild-x.y.z and gcc-x.y to removedeps
Package: dpkg-cross
Version: 1.29
Severity: wishlist
When converting linux-headers-2.6.17-1-nslu2 (and similar packages)
the following dependencies are useless:
linux-kbuild-2.6.17
gcc-4.0
It would also be useful if removedeps supported wildcards, to cover different versions.
