Package: cross-gcc-dev
Version: 146
Severity: serious
Justification: Policy 3.5

cross-gcc-dev depends on realpath. This has actually been a transitional
package since jessie, and should have been realpath | coreutils (>= 8.26-1). At
this point, after two stable releases, the realpath transitional package is
going away and the dependency on the essential package coreutils should just be
dropped.
