Hello Andreas

The initial problem was precisely related to the "packaged" nvidia driver, aka nvidia-kernel-dkms. DKMS modules require appropriate gcc to be built, and this gcc is installed through build-essential (which is a dependency of dkms).

When I opened this bug, build-essential was broken because it was not installing the appropriate version of gcc. As a sequel, it was no more possible to build DKMS packages (and so the problem was not only impacting nvidia driver).

In the meantime, build-essential, linux-image-amd64, linux-headers-amd64 and gcc packages have been updated so that everything is now coherent. Thanks to these updates, I was able to build my dkms module, and so this bug can be closed.

Best regards

that's a bogus check by either dkms or the nvidia script.
That's the nvidia driver assuming 'gcc' being the compiler used to build
your kernel and therefore your kernel modules.

Why don't you use the packaged nvidia driver?
