Hello,
bcc is a package (and executable) name that is already in use for
another program in Debian. From https://packages.debian.org/sid/bcc:
"Package: bcc
16-bit x86 C compiler
This is a C-compiler for 8086 cpus which is important for the
development of boot loaders or BIOS related 8086 code.
It is possible to run 8086 code under i386 Linux using an
emulator, `elksemu', also included in this package."
