That's because you shouldn't be doing that manually. There are embedded Linux build systems that are designed to precisely handle this work. OpenEmbedded, Yocto, Buildroot, PTXdist, OpenBricks, etc. My preference of course goes towards Buildroot, since I'm part of the development team. But the others are fine, too, since they make this cross-compilation easier *and* reproducible. Handling the cross-compilation of the various packages for its embedded Linux system in a manual way is a very bad development practice, in my opinion.
