Ok, so ISTM that to keep this solution working we'll need to do something like running qemu-arm-static with no arguments and parse its output for the version string. Unless there's another way to easily trigger the bug without running something inside the chroot (I don't want to wait until we have the chroot ready to find out that the existing qemu-arm-static doesn't work).
You could run a static ARM binary under qemu-arm-static -- that would not require a chroot. But I don't think we really want to get into the business of doing a pile of tests at runtime. My vote would be for: * packaged versions of l-m-c should just use dependencies to enforce a working version * unpackaged versions are assumed to be used by people who know what they're doing * l-m-c shouldn't try to install anything at runtime
