Debian cleanup script removes C/C++ compiler and therefore breaks DKMS support #509

Closed

Description

Is this intentional?

This line:

apt-get -y purge cpp gcc g++;

And similarly for Ubuntu

apt-get -y purge cpp gcc g++;

This doesn't seem like you'd want this. Why install DKMS in the preseed in the first place if you don't need it? or is installing DKMS just a faster way to get everything installed that the Guest Additions require?

If it is not the desired intent, I'd like to submit a PR to remove these lines, someone might need to inspect the other distros as well.
