I am using an Ubuntu 12.10 (ARMHF) distribution on a panda board. I want to run applications compiled for ARMEL. It was not possible due to a changed dynamic loader location (https://wiki.linaro.org/OfficeofCTO/HardFloat/LinkerPathCallApr2012)

I succeeded by creating the following symbolic link /lib/ld-linux.so.3 -> /lib/ld-linuxarmhf.so.3

Is there a way to install a portability package instead? Is there a reason why this is not done by the distribution?

Thanks in advance
