gcc does recommend the piece that it needs: libc6-dev.  It's just more
customary that if you need a full build environment that you install
build-essential.

You're not required to load it, because the C compiler works fine for
compiling kernels and kernel modules, for which no libc is required.

Tks,
Jeff Bailey

You need to install build-essential in order to compile C programs.

Rejecting - Not a bug.
