What can one say about the Chern class $c_1(\mathcal{L})$ of a line bundle $\mathcal{L}$ on an Abelian variety $A$ inducing a (principal) polarisation $A \to A^\vee$?

Why am I asking this? My situation is as follows: Let $A/k$ be an Abelian variety with $k$-endomorphism $f: A \to A$, $\mathcal{L} \in \mathrm{Pic}(A)$ a line bundle inducing a (principal) polarisation $A \to A^\vee$. Now for simplicity let us assume $A$ to be a surface. I want the expression $\mathrm{deg}(((f,c_\mathcal{L})^*\mathcal{P}_A \cup c_1(\mathcal{L})) \in \mathbf{Z}$, where $\mathcal{P}_A$ denotes the Poincaré bundle on $A \times_k A^\vee$ and $c_\mathcal{L}$ the polarisation induced by $\mathcal{L}$, to be independent of the choice of the ample line bundle $\mathcal{L}$.

Edit: In the form stated above, it is wrong: $c_{\mathcal{L} \otimes \mathcal{M}} = c_{\mathcal{L}} + c_{\mathcal{M}}$ and $c_1({\mathcal{L} \otimes \mathcal{M}}) = c_1({\mathcal{L}}) + c_1({\mathcal{M}})$, so if you replace $\mathcal{L}$ by $\mathcal{L}^{\otimes n}$, the term is multiplied by $n^2$.

Perhaps one has to replace $\mathrm{deg}(((f,c_\mathcal{L})^*\mathcal{P}_A \cup c_1(\mathcal{L}))$ by $\mathrm{deg}(((f,c_\mathcal{L})^*\mathcal{P}_A \cup c_1(\mathcal{L})^{-1})$, but this still does not work with all tensor products $\mathcal{L} \otimes \mathcal{M}$.
