I'm setting up a new machine with Linux specifically to use for OpenEmbedded 
development. Which Linux distro should I go with?

I'm looking to make it as easy as possible to get started, so ideally all the 
packages I need will be available from that distro's standard repositry.

I've tried SuSE in the past and given up trying to get all of the required 
tools installed, and more recently been using Debian, but the Python version in 
Debian is a few versions behind and there was talk of OE soon requiring a more 
up to date version.

Ubuntu is a good candidate at the moment as I belive there won't be any 
hardware issues with the laptop I want to use, but this wiki page suggests 
there's some faffing to do 
http://wiki.openembedded.net/index.php/Gcc_issues_in_Intrepid_and_later which 
I'd like to avoid if possible - does anyone know if these issues are present in 
the latest version 9.10?

Thanks



Simon
