It’s the choice of viewer developers whether they will fall inline with Linden
Lab on any given change or policy or not. I would be surprised if any viewer
already supporting Linux would drop support just because of this. It was never
started that Linden Lab would stop support of their Linux viewer either, just
that they would no longer be making efforts themselves to develop it.
