Hello. Here result of my summer Linux distros tour.
I did follow the excellent advices of Sternas from the CodeTyphon project: http://www.pilotlogic.com/sitejoom/index.php/wiki/135-wiki/codetyphon-host-oses What I want: - Multi-Arch OS (possibility to run 32 bit apps on a 64 bit OS). - Multi-Patform (can run Windows emulator (wine) and virtual-apps (VMware, VirtualBox,...) - Out-of-the-box. - Can run pure X apps 32 and 64 bit (like MSEgui, fpGUI,...) - Can run LCL apps 32 and 64 bit (like GTK, QT, ...) One of the advices of Sternas was, for developers, to use a primary (parent) distro and forget the child distros: 1. RedHat (Childs: Fedora, SUSE, CentOS, OracleLinux, Korona, etc). 2. Debian (Childs: Ubuntu, Mint, Kali, WattOS, etc) 3. Mandriva (Childs; Mageia, OpenMandriva, Rosa, etc) 4. Archlinux (Childs: Chakra, Manjaro, Antergos, etc) 5. Gentoo (Childs: Sabayon, Calculate, etc) 6. Slackware (Childs: VectorLinux, Slackel, Salix, etc) Trusting the lot of diary tests of CodeTyphon labs, it appears that only 3 parents-distro are really multi-arch + multi-platform: RedHat, Debian and Mandriva. I did choose distro Debian 9.5 that did install + work out-of-the-box.
