arm-indigo-linux-gnueabi-gcc and related tools are available in PATH;
your cross-compiler is likely to have a different target prefix.
-Also, a warning about chrpath:
-
-This used to be an optional dependency. We've made it required
-because too many people are confused by what happens when chrpath
-is not present, and by the workarounds this requires.
-
-Unfortunarely, this leads to a problem when when cross-compiling. The
-problem is that, as of version 0.13, chrpath can only edit binaries
-for the host it's running on. There's an unmerged patch to fix this

+When you are cross-compiling, you'll need chrpath at version 0.14 or
+later for cross-architecture support. If it's not yet packaged for
