Sadly, installing a toolchain isn't a simple apt-get for a single
package - you usually need to combine quite a few packages one the
command line.

This is a more difficult problem though - libgcc1 (==1:4.2.x) no longer
exists in Debian and the ones I can find via Hector's old builds appear
to be too old. This happens because Debian migrates the default gcc
compiler and, at the same time, drops libgcc1 from the previous default
- but then the old compiler is still updated. The version of libgcc1
from the old compiler can no longer be built.

It's a difficult thing, this toolchain business.
:-(

Try:
$ emchain -v -a armel
