Ubuntu has a server edition to download.  Like Ubuntu desktop, Linux Mint is a desktop edition.  You can run the server software on them, but your desktop will be using resources even when it's sitting idle.  It might not be enough to bother, but why have all that extra on there when all of the instructions for installing an maintaining Koha are for the command line anyway?  My opinion is yes you can run Koha on a desktop system like Mint, but why?  I'm sure there are people on this list who know much more than I do about it.  They should be able to give you reasons for why it matters or not.

Big picture questions for me:

What, beyond the immediate differences between what Debian and Ubuntu are known 
for, are the differences as regards getting a working Koha installation?

Is it just that Koha made for Debian but Ubuntu is close enough that it works 
on Ubuntu too?

Or does some other relationship hold as well?

I haven’t seen discussion of Koha under Linux Mint. Is that because Mint is 
different enough not to be compatible, or just because Mint is not as known for 
servers?

Thanks,
