Package: binutils-gold
Version: 2.20-1
Severity: normal

I tested different packages in debian and noticed that it always links against
some libraries which aren't used and I never specified. I also tested to use
--as-needed and it didn't change that weird behavior. This doesn't happen with
the old binutils linker

Example output from zlib:

dpkg-shlibdeps: warning: dependency on libgcc_s.so.1 could be avoided if 
"debian/zlib1g/usr/lib/libz.so.1.2.3.3" were not 
uselessly linked against it (they use none of its symbols).

I had also a different package which also linked against libICE without any
visible reason, but cannot find it again at the momentt
