This series seems like a definite improvement, but I'd suggest explicitly noting in the README that once you've run the relocate-sdk.sh script, the second not recommended option of entering the chroot will no longer function due to the changed interpreter paths.

Currently, our SDK can primarily be used by chroot'ing into it, taking
the to-be-built project with you (bind mount etc.). This was enough for
a start but we can do better.

This series enhance the SDK to become usage as a normal cross-toolchain
on your host system. For that purpose, we add a script that relocates
the toolchain after installation, adjust binary search paths and
sysroot. So, the only remaining difference to a yocto or buildroot
toolchain is the need to run the relocation script once after unpacking
the SDK.

The series furthermore allows to customize the SDK content via the
image-generating layer.

The series (together with all other pending patching of mine) can also
be found at https://github.com/siemens/isar/commits/jan/queue.

While I already shrunk the SDK a bit by removing the now obsolete
isar-apt repo, I suspect we could further reduce the deployment size by
dropping chroot support completely, only including the compiler and
their library dependencies. OTOH, sdk-debian-buster-arm64.tar.xz is now
142M here, unpacked 680M, while ARM's
gcc-arm-8.3-2019.03-x86_64-aarch64-linux-gnu.tar.xz has
260M packed and 1.5G(!) unpacked. So we are either not really off or are
still missing something.
