Unfortunately Ubuntu is not compatible with Debian in the toolchain area. They made some changes to how the compiler is built (to do with libssp IIRC) which mean that toolchains built for Debian don't install. This is very tiresome, but no-one has volunteered to maintian ubuntu-style cross-toolchains yet so far as I know. It would be nice. Simon Richter did build some a while back which might still be satisfactory. Can someone who understands this properly remind me what needs to be done to have ubuntu-compatible toolchains in our repo? Do we just need to keep some chroots and do our normal builds in there as well, or are there more intrusive patches needed?
