Re: What is the recommended distro?

I've helped keep the build dependencies for Debian Wheezy up to date. As such it builds pretty well for me.

I didn't mention in my last e-mail, but I am using Ubuntu 12.10, which uses Gnome by default. Could this be the cause of the compilation problems I'm facing?

Hi Helio,

I personally use Mageia, but they are often 1 version point behind on
Gnome, their upcoming release will include 3.6 instead of 3.8
Upside of Mageia is that they are a KDE centric distro and thus keep a
vanilla/neutral Gnome environment, which is more pure for development.

If you want cutting edge, you probably want the latest Fedora, where
Gnome is a first class citizen, but probably their gnome outroll is
spiked with fedora centric code.

I do not know how other distros behave with gnome, other on here can
tell you that.

Success.
