All these instructions are not tied to a specified version, it
should work for the future. Linux Distribution like
fedora/debain/ArchLinux will not change such a package name for
installing arm toolchain, as the toolchain package is not like
libpng, you may have libpng11 libpng1.2 or what ever, it's just
solid package names.
