Package: gcc-16
Version: 16.2.0-2
Severity: normal
The architecture-specific GCC 16 packages are substantially larger than
the corresponding GCC 15 packages. These figures were displayed by
aptitude while upgrading from GCC 15 to GCC 16. I suspect that it might
be a packaging bug (for example debugging symbols were included in all
GCC binary packages, etc.).
