Well, I was blaming libtool too much. If the entire Binutils tree uses
libtool this won't happen. The problem is Binutils building system is
using libtool-style idiom on non-libtool components.
And this issue is not related to cross compiling, at all. A native
build can exploit the issue as well (see the updated comment).
Maybe I'll submit a patch to GCC (yes, not a typo, GCC is the upstream
of Binutils building system) to fix the issue when I have the mood...
It makes the package names more consistent, and it reduces the number of
different msgid's for translators.
By the way, move Udev to keep alphabetic order.
It allows binutils to link to zstd, so binutils will have
zstd-compressed debug section support (the compression is not enabled
by default but can be enabled via LDFLAGS etc. if wanted).
We also need to add libzstd.so.&zstd-version; into online_usrlib to
prevent a crash in stripping.
The configure script says:
configure: WARNING: filterdiff not installed; build will not be
reproducible.
The filterdiff program is a part of patchutils.
