Looking at the [...] on the buildd logs, i find: -fuse-ld=gold

The gold linker got split into its own package, binutils-gold, which
needs to be a build-dependeny now.

Also not the description of Package: binutils-gold

 WARNING: gold is being removed from binutils, and is deprecated upstream.

It might be neccassary to remove gold at all for future releases.

Thanks,
