What should I do?

makepkg uses a file named "PKGBUILD" that is essentially a simple recipe on how to build this thing. You can look at it yourself here:
https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.g...i-gcc49-linaro
You can see:
- What exactly it downloads
- What dependencies it installs (those might have slightly different names on Ubuntu)
- That it adds 3 patches (those hare in the same folder as the PKGBUILD https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.g...i-gcc49-linaro , I'm not sure though what they do or whether they're neccesary )
- What commands and parameters are used to build it
Alternatively you could put Arch in a docker container and then build it in there I guess. Also there needs to be some official documentation from linaro on how to build it, that would cover Ubuntu probably
