The 'strings' utilty is missing libbfd

[rM-self-serve]

Describe the issue
Toltec installs /opt/bin/strings which is a sym link to /opt/bin/binutils-strings. On the rM2 v2.15, binutils-strings requires libbfd-2.40.so which is not installed by default.

To Reproduce
Install toltec on the rM2 v2.15 and run strings.

Expected behaviour
N/A

Upstream issue
This is likely an issue in entware though I have not identified it.

According to control inside the ipk, libbfd is not part of the binutils package, so this would be an upstream issue. If you can track down what is pulling in strings in toltec, we can add libbfd to its dependencies for now to work around this.

Looking at the package definition for binutils in entware, it does appear to reference libbfd, but it's not part of the requirements for libbfd. Assuming I'm reading it correctly.

@rM-self-serve did you ever look further into this, and if so, did you open an upstream issue for it?

I took a cursory, unfruitful glance. Given my current circumstances, I do not anticipate I will be able to move this issue forward for the foreseeable future.
