In that case, you don't need to install crossbuild_essential_arm64. 
Compiling in that chroot is like compiling directly on an ARM platforms.

My runes are usually:

./configure
make -j install-tools

This will install the tools in /usr/local/

I think the list of dependencies on the CrossCompiling page is still valid:

I meant Linux Distribution. E.g is it Debian, Fedora, Yocto?
