The IPFire buildsystem should work with ubuntu on the odroid. (I use an 
Odroid-X to build IPFire.)
If you clone the git and check the master or next out and run
./make.sh gettoolchain
./make.sh downloadsrc
./make.sh build

It will build the current master or next devel-branch for arm.

There are two problems at odroid-x/u support. You need to build a 
working uboot from source (Exynos need a signed bootloader which is very 
bad)
and a 3.10.x kernel with grsecurity, imq, layer7 and some other 
patchsets.

Both we have not got to work.
