I was expecting this would have already done during "bitbake
core-image-minimal" because all these tools are required to build the
images. In my understanding populate_sdk would just install the "native
package deb files" already created during "bitbake core-image-minimal". I
know there is something wrong in my understanding. Could you please explain
bit in detail.

sdks are supposed to run on different hosts too which we call sdkhost there
fore it has to build native sdk packages to insulate itself from build
host. for normal build these consideration is not needed
