Hi Micha,

I think the comments regarding Debian are a little bit misleading. There
are two different things - development and packaging platforms.
ok you are right, so the rephrased question should be: What should be the recommended distribution for deploying an OpenXPKI installation from prebuild packages.

If you build the system from the sources, I agree that it is not really a matter what distro we choose, but I guess most people who are new to OpenXPKI would not try to build it, if there is a package. Besides a well defined environment is mandatory to provide support to the people.
BTW the Linux notebooks in my data center unit use Debian unstable ;)
A notebook is not a mission critical server and I dont now much people running unstable on servers.
I see actually no need for a decision. If you build the packaging stuff
on Ubuntu LTS then it should be no problem to migrate it to Debian. I
personally think that it is much more important that MANIFEST and
Makefile.PL are up-to-date. Even "make test" has a higher priority in my
eyes.
Agreed, but irrelevant on the rephrased question ;)
