No problem, just puzzled…
I just noticed that libc6 and libgcc-s1 depend upon each other.
I wonder if such mutual cross dependencies are ever associated with a problem?
Or is that acceptable if the packages involved are always considered essential?
(Both of these packages are listed as priority optional tho.)
(Or is it not a “real” dependency?)

It is possibly but not necessarily a “real” (((runtime))) dependency.
You can read about it if you run a web search for “circular dependency”. For this specific case, a narrower websearch “circular dependency libc6 libgcc-s1” could help to discover the specifics.
