Well, I had big hopes for LSB.... 4 years ago.



It doesn't work ? From the web it seems that most major linux distros are LSB compliant...

The LSB exists, theoretically it works, but nobody wants it.

The official distro independent binaries of Firefox, OpenOffice, Acrobat, Flash don't bother with it - nobody does!

Dealing with the LSB build environment is a royal PITA.
And if you build that way, it won't work on the hundreds of non-LSB distros. Why would you do that, when all that is really needed is linking against an old version of the libc, and then the binary will work for everybody.
The LSB is a link-level fork - stupid IMHO.
