You are wrong! Mint 10 is a 100% derivative of Ubuntu Linux. In fact I

Ubuntu is not supported either. The core Linux distribution is the .tar.gz
distribution agnostic one,
And I would say that starting from the tarball and rebuilding a source
snapshot or from svn has given me no trouble on Debian or Slackware,
while saves me being stuck several years behind reality. However FPC and
Lazarus are about the only things I install this way, /particularly/ for
system libraries I rely as much as possible on the distro.
