Issue body
How to reproduce:
Get the dosbox snapcraft.yaml from the official docs https://docs.snapcraft.io/c-c-applications/7817 and replace the confinement with "grade: stable" and "confinement: classic". Try then to build with "snapcraft cleanbuild"
The error you will get is:
checking for gcc... gcc
checking whether the C compiler works... no
configure: error: in `/root/build_dosbox/parts/dosbox/build':
configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
See `config.log' for more details
Failed to run './configure --prefix=' for 'dosbox': Exited with code 77.
Verify that the part is using the correct parameters and try again.
Error: not found
This bug is blocking MicroK8s from building.
Thank you.
