@amadeus@mstdn.social @alisynthesis@io.waxandleather.com Agreed. I've mostly been telling prospective developers that they can compile on an old version of Debian, statically link their libraries, and have most things work. I suggest creating a .DEB for Debian/Ubuntu (and derivative distros), and then taking the same binaries and Zipping them (along with a readme of where to place the binaries) for everyone else. That keeps things quite simplified. And since the libraries are mostly backwards compatible, it usually just works
