[Christoph Egger]

Package: valac
Version: 0.30.0-2
Severity: important

Hi!

  valac fails to work properly without gcc installed but lacks a dependency on it:

$ valac main.vala
error: Failed to execute child process "cc" (No such file or directory)
Compilation failed: 1 error(s), 0 warning(s)

Regards

  Christoph
