Dear Willem,

yes, you will need such tools, especially for

1) yes, you will need all the libraries twice - one for the 
(host) linux and one for the (arm7 in your case?) processor.

2) For this you will need the image, too. Downloable via the 
SDK manager. If you get the android SDK, you will have an 
image to run into ADB.

Private suggestion: download eclipse - with the android 
part, I'm sure there is one. So you have all in one package.

Axel.
