Hi Karl,

Don't choose your Linux version from this. Qt works well on all the 
newer Linux versions. Ubuntu is fine, but openSUSE, RedHat, Mint or any 
of the others are just as good.

If you choose one of the major versions, Qt won't give you any problems. 
And it probably won't on more esoteric versions.

I would choose this based more on the toolchain available on the 
platform. Up to date gcc and gdb, for example. For example, in Ubuntu I 
just got hit by a really bad gdb bug that made gdb unusable for large 
projects.
