This might be actually quite useful poll. I hope it will tell us important thinks like for which distributions should we package, write docs etc.
So: Everyone please vote, so we have a representative statistics
For me, I'm an Arch Linux fan, but I also develop on Debian (at work, unfortunately not U++ ).

Hi,
I had to answer 'Windows', although I wish it could be otherwise. However, part of getting any change on that answer is to have a well working U++ port on each platform. So, U++ is in fact my survival plan in the changing world of APIs and platforms. I constantly compile and test my software products on Kubuntu Linux too, just to make sure I have written portable U++ apps.
Best regards,
Tom

FYI,
I got Slitaz ( http://www.slitaz.org/ ), a 30mb Linux distribution that runs from pendrives, CDs and HDs with minimal RAM usage to run TheIde.
I haven't build any upp application in it because it still requires to set up the paths in TheIde.
But it runs and could be a viable portable U++.
Here's how I done:
1) Downloaded the latest Slitaz ISO.
2) Ran it in VirtualBox.
3) Downloaded TheIDe and Upp .deb packages.
4) Used Slitaz's package manager to convert the debian packages to its own format: # tazpkg convert <packagename>.deb
5) Installed the packages: tazpkg install <packagename>.tazpkg
At this point one could remaster Slitaz and build a new ISO with U++ in it following Slitaz manual. Then one could write this ISO to pendrives or CDs and work with U++ everywhere.
Enjoy!

| There is a spec file in svn... I guess that with some minimal tweaking you could use it to build rpm package on your fedora. Or you can always compile it from source code, the old way (Ask in separate thread, if you are feeling adventurous )
lectus wrote on Sun, 04 December 2011 19:38 | Also, how do you build it under wine? You just download U++ for Windows and Mingw and it works in wine?
If I get wine to work this well I might dump Windows completely.

Yes, it works just like that I use it this way in Arch Linux too. Also, with a bit of research and tweaking, it should be possible to use mingw to cross-compile directly from the linux version of theide... but most people use the first method, it is just easier
