src:linux currently has an explicit Build-Depends on gcc-13. This defeats the whole point of building against whatever 'build-essential' pulls in for the target Debian release, and it results in several GCC suites getting unnecessarily installed. It would instead be desirable for src:linux to Build-Depends on either the generic 'gcc' or on 'build-essential' for its compiler requirements.

And how will that work if src:linux uses gcc-13 to build?

Is there any compelling reason for src:linux to hardcode the GCC
version as an explicit dependency?

build-essential is required to build any Debian package.
