Updated PIO, build now fails with "KeyError: 'tool-avrdude," but I'm not even using avrdude

[MrSurly]

Versions:

• PIO: 6.1.5
• toolchain-atmelavr @ ~1.70300.0
• tool-scons@4.40400.0

Appears to be similar to #269

My project is here: https://gitlab.com/nuance-systems/dragonfly-can-expander

To re-create error, simply enter the firmware subdirectory and do make or pio run

I was trying to solve a …relocation truncated to fit: R_AVR_13_PCREL against symbol…" error, when I decided to do pio pkg update, which is when this new KeyError error began.

This project doesn't even use avrdude, since it's a TINY0 project, which uses pymcuprog

Update: Fixed this for myself by doing pio pkg install -t tool-avrdude, but it doesn't fix the underlying problem. I suspect that since my board is ATtiny806, it doesn't have a dependency for avrdude, but it seems a reference to avrdude is hard-coded somewhere.
