Well, could you do a build for each of the major distros/versions you
want to support? Thats all I can think of.

Well in this case it would be

1) CentOS / Red Hat REL
2) Debian
3) Fedora
4) Gentoo
5) OpenSuse
6) Suse Enterprise
7) Mandriva
8) Ubuntu
9) PCLinuxOS
10) Slackware

Some of them even in two different version numbers. So i would think
about 15 different main stream distros
that people are using for Desktop apps.

I'm not really after installing all this. I will go with a clean LSB
3.2 sandbox build. Installed the latest lsbapp
checker tool and after removing Xcursor and Xrandr extensions i only
have one not supported function call
in the boehm weisser garbage collector.

I will see how this works. My application is shareware so people can
check if it works on there
system anyway before giving me there credit cards.

And then i can only hope the distris stay backward compatible with
there own previous versions.
