[Qt-interest] distributing a Qt app on Linux

[Nathan Carter]

I just finished running the fabulous macdeployqt program on my  
application, and was pleasantly surprised to see just how easy it is  
to prepare a fully-ready-for-distribution application.

It is harder on Windows, but I'm familiar with HMNSIS, so I'm all set  
there, too.

Now Linux.

I realize this isn't *completely* a Qt question, but since I know that  
you've all dealt with this issue, and since surely some Qt-related  
issues arise (Qt libs, whether to build from source, what binaries can  
be transported safely, etc.) I thought I'd ask.

How do you recommend distributing for Linux?  It's an OSS app, so I  
can just refer people to my SVN repo and put a readme up there for  
building, and a .desktop file for convenience.

Any better ideas?
