Bug description:
  As shown by the test regression of
  http://autopkgtest.ubuntu.com/packages/u/ubuntu-drivers-
  common/wily/amd64/ , fglrx and fglrx-updates fail to build the module
  in wily-proposed:

  So it seems fglrx hardcodes "gcc-4.9" without depending on it -- only
  the default compiler is installed:

  ii  gcc              4:5.2.1-3ubuntu1 amd64        GNU C compiler
  ii  gcc-5            5.2.1-15ubuntu1  amd64        GNU C compiler
  ii  gcc-5-base:amd64 5.2.1-15ubuntu1  amd64        GCC, the GNU Compiler Collection (base package)

  Ideally fglrx would switch to building with gcc-5 (or any gcc); if
  that's not possible, please adjust the dependencies to "gcc-4.9"
  explicitly.
