Version: 1.3.6+dfsg1-1
Severity: important
Hi!
src:retroarch has a direct build dependency on libc6-dev which is
not required and also not recommended as it breaks the build depedencies
on some architectures.
libc6-dev is always pulled in through build-essential which is present
on all buildds and build chroots.
Please drop libc6-dev from Build-Depends in debian/control.
See Debian Policy, Section 7.7 [1].
