Debian, Gentoo, Ubuntu (as Debian's downstream), Arch Linux, some BSD versions, ... already switched. We already maintained a number of patches that were not included into the upstream builds and fixed another set of problems since then. I explored different testing frameworks when we faced the decision whether to "fork" cppunit or switch to a different testing framework and decided that it is better to stay with cppunit. It is mature and well tested and except for a few nice to have features more or less what we need. Additionally switching testing frameworks requires to rewrite quite a large piece of our code base that is better spend improving the existing tests. Regards, Markus
