problem fetching arm binaries from emsandbox/embootstrap

[Ali Khan <ak@msu.edu>]

I am trying to run emsandbox with the following args:

sudo emsandbox -a arm

This generates some errors when fetching the ARM binaries:

I: Resolving dependencies of required packages...
I: Resolving dependencies of base packages...
I: Found additional required dependencies: libblkid1 libdevmapper1.02.1 
libselinux1 libsepol1 libtextwrap1 libuuid1
I: Found additional base dependencies: dhcp3-common e2fslibs e2fsprogs 
libbz2-1.0 libcomerr2 libpopt0 libss2 libvolume-id0 lsb-base ncurses-bin

This goes on...

One of the logs reveals:

Looks like one of the pointers to the binaries needs to be updated?

I could just as readily cross compile for ARM and PPC, but have not 
figured out how to do that yet with emdebian.
