I can blame some problems on myself, because I've got not much experience with that while I have lots of experience for Windows, so I made a lot of beginner bugs. But also the Linux distribution do have some problems. The incompatible changes in the C++ ABI where certainly one of the worst things and make it close to impossible to deliver binaries for older systems. And just using the libraries which are installed is very risky, because it means that you always have to follow what the current distribution de jour is doing. Linking static works mostly in case you can avoid all lgpl libs or opensource your stuff. Linking dynamically and just distribution the dynamic libs with your application helps, but is harder to do on Linux than on Windows (I had to use some evil tricks to manage that for some libs). Don't even get me started on packet managers. Btw... H-Craft does no longer install on newest Ubuntu versions - so maybe that's why I'm also somewhat pissed off right now ;)[/quote]
