The symbolic link is a workaround I'd better fix the build system to avoid it; 
anyway the culprit seems to be your override in OVERRIDES setting. This is very 
internal to the Yocto Project metadata and you need to be careful when messing 
up with it.

Hi Otavio,

Thanks for the assistance.
The symbolic link is OUR workaround, because of the way we structured our .pro 
file (and the directory hierarchy) on the original development host.
We decided to reference the sysroot from a symbolic link at the next directory 
level up, and coded it so in the project.  (And created the syslink in both 
environments)
I don't think you need to do anything about it in the build system.
In other words, it is OUR hack, we are not proud of it, but it helps things 
stay consistent in our environment.

I have perhaps messed up the OVERRIDES, because the documentation seems rather 
sparse.
The Yocto manual refers one to the bitbake manual, and the bitbake manual gives 
some rather elementary examples.
(And no caveats in either manual)

I suspect from your comment, and further reflection that our line should 
instead have been:
OVERRIDES =+"${GDBTYPE}:"
(I think I inadvertently wiped out all other override values in the variable)

Regards,
