If someone chooses a distro with a slow release cycle like Ubuntu LTS or
Debian stable they should understand that access to the latest software
updates will not be so straightforward. Unfortunately, ~2 years has been
about how often Mixxx releases happen too...
I am in doubt that the manufacturer a will
ship a Ctlra build along with there hardware.
I don't think this is such a far-fetched goal. Manufacturers have been
increasingly open about their controllers in the last few years. For
example, Novation has published firmware for the Launchpad Pro:
https://github.com/dvhdr/launchpad-pro
and Ableton published documentation and a demo application for the Push 2:
https://github.com/Ableton/push-interface
https://github.com/Ableton/push2-display-with-juce
I'd imagine it would be nicer to write code for Ctlra than write a big
manual with words.
This brings up the question of the license to use for Ctlra. I have
suggested using the Mozilla Public License. If you have thoughts about
that, join the discussion on the GitHub issue:
