There's no need to directly provide binutils-cross-${TARGET_ARCH}, as the
PROVIDES list already contains virtual/${TARGET_PREFIX}binutils and correct
PREFERRED_PROVIDER is set in the corresponding tcmode-external-arm.inc file:
PREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/${TARGET_PREFIX}binutils = "external-arm-toolchain"
Similar to the compiler:
PREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/${TARGET_PREFIX}gcc = "external-arm-toolchain"
PREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/${TARGET_PREFIX}gcc-initial = "external-arm-toolchain"
PREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/${TARGET_PREFIX}g++ = "external-arm-toolchain"
And similar to glibc:
PREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/${TARGET_PREFIX}libc-for-gcc = "external-arm-toolchain"
PREFERRED_PROVIDER_virtual/${TARGET_PREFIX}compilerlibs = "external-arm-toolchain"
There shouldn't be any direct dependency on binutils-cross-${TARGET_ARCH}. And
if there is, it needs to be fixed to depend on virtual/${TARGET_PREFIX}binutils
During 8.x upgrade there was an attempt to clean it up:
https://git.linaro.org/openembedded/meta-linaro.git/commit/meta-linaro-toolchain/recipes-devtools/external-arm-toolchain/external-arm-toolchain.bb?id=a8ce3dc47f3be9f98abc6ac98a849f918386cf9f
But unfortunately, it got re-added back w/o reasoning:
https://git.linaro.org/openembedded/meta-linaro.git/commit/?id=bb04bc8c67fd032fe04c47b2163ea5fa6b2ffa86
Also, while at it, fix indentation for glibc-mtrace in PROVIDES list.
