Bug Description

Binary package hint: linaro-image-tools

I was testing natty alpha 3 images using my maverick box. I did not add any linaro PPAs that would bring more recent tools to my system. Attempting to build an ubuntu desktop SD card for omap failed due to qemu crash.

IMHO linaro-image-tools should detect which version of qemu is installed and require one that is known to work. Otherwise the user experience is poor (tools crash, needs to chase PPAs).
