Ubuntu: 2.3.1 for official Utopic Unicorn (14.10) and in OPM's PPA for Trusty 
Tahr (14.04) and Precise Pangolin (12.04)
Debian: 2.3.1 for 8.0 (jessie) and 6.0 (wheezie9 via backports, 2.2 for 
official wheezy without backports 
OpenSuse: 2.3.1 for 13.1 and 13,2
Suse: 2.3.1 for SLE-12
Redhat: 2.2 (see
http://sourceforge.net/projects/opm-project/files/packages/2013.09/redhat/5/x86_64/
 )

Wondering who maintains the redhat packages...

I guess supporting 2.2 to 2.4 would be quite a hassle. 2.3 and 2.4 (at
least for the part used in OPM itself) should be much easier.
