PPA got updated to following components:

- eglibc 2.13-0ubuntu4
- binutils 2.21.0.20110302-1ubuntu1
- gcc 4.5.2-5ubuntu2
- gdb 7.2-1ubuntu9
- gcc-defaults-armel-cross 1.4

Users of Lucid and Maverick editions can now cross compile applications
for ARM targets running Natty.

To install cross compilers you can use "apt-get install
gcc-arm-linux-gnueabi" command. Replace gcc with g++, gfortran, gobjc,
gobjc++ if you need any of those languages.

To debug your cross binaries please install gdb-multiarch as it knows
how to handle ARM code properly.

Please report any problems against "armel-cross-toolchain-base" and
"gcc-4.5-armel-cross" packages at launchpad.
