[pve-devel] [PATCH pve-vgpu-helper v2] add 'gcc' to the dependency list

[pve-devel] [PATCH pve-vgpu-helper v2] add 'gcc' to the dependency list

[Dominik Csapak]

dkms in trixie does not depend on on any compiler anymore, so we have to
add it ourselves, otherwise the necessary build tools are not installed
for the nvidia driver.

The dependency was 'gcc | c-compiler' so by default it would choose
'gcc', so let us use that as a dependency.

The relevant debian change is

this is the v2 to:

'build-essential' was overkill, just gcc is enough

Yeah, that's better than the whole build-essentials, so:
