Two avr-gcc versions and Ardunio IDE 2.0 uses the wrong one

[stenlik]

Hello,

I got the following problem:

• In the …AppData\Local\Arduino15\packages\arduino\tools\avr-gcc\ folder are two versions of avr-gcc
  • 4.8.1-arduino5
  • 7.3.0-atmel3.6.1-arduino5
• I need when the project is compiled for Arduboy that Arduino IDE (2.0.0-beta.8) use version from 7.3.0-atmel3.6.1-arduino5 folder, not from the 4.8.1-arduino5 folder, otherwise the build fails (I see the error cc1.exe: error: -fno-fat-lto-objects are supported only with linker plugin)
• The only way I found it can fixed is to change in platform.txt file the line compiler.path={runtime.tools.avr-gcc.path}/bin/ and instead of {runtime.tools.avr-gcc.path} use there the full path, i.e. I need to change the line to compiler.path=c:\Users\petr.mazanec\AppData\Local\Arduino15\packages\arduino\tools\avr-gcc\7.3.0-atmel3.6.1-arduino5\bin\

Why is that happening in the first place?
Is there a better way how to fix it than my workaround? Any advice please?

Thanks a lot
STeN
