Got this setup and fixed the wiki documentation along the way.

All my xdeb builds crash and burn with the following error:

arm-linux-gnueabi-objdump: /lib/libm.so.6: File format not recognized
dpkg-shlibdeps: error: arm-linux-gnueabi-objdump gave error exit status 1

I've tried grep, powertop and binutils.

I'm running this in a maverick chroot on Lucid (64-bit).

Any clues what might be going wrong?
