Package: dpkg-dev Severity: normal Debian Policy section 7.4 says to prefer real packages over virtual ones.
I do not know how apt-get behaves but when aptitude is asked to install dpkg-dev it pulls in bcc even if gcc is pulled in too for other reasons. Aptitude probably could try harder at resolving dependencies to the smallest possible set of packages, but it _is_ a bug of dpkg-dev to not depend on a real package.
