[Bug 799301] [NEW] Building package isn't resolved correctly

[Sworddragon]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: apt

I'm using Ubuntu 11.10 dev and apt 0.8.14.1ubuntu7. I wanted to use the
command "apt-get build-dep gcc" and got the information that the source
package gcc-defaults will be used instead of gcc. But I got in this case
the error that version 1.104ubuntu1 of gcc couldn't be found.

But if I resolve the package manually with "apt-get build-dep gcc-
defaults" all is working fine. It seems that not every package has this
problem. For example libgl1-mesa-glx (resolved to mesa) is working fine.
