AFAIK, you don't certify for a distribution vendor, but for a certain |
11 |
fixed distribution. So you can say software X is certified for Fedora |
12 |
Core rc2, SuSE Professional 9.2 and Debian 3.0. But gentoo is (and |
13 |
that's part of its beauty) a moving target, and therefore you never can |
14 |
say if X will work on it (what about the next glibc update, for example). |

Maybe this will change with the introduction of the hypothetical |
17 |
server/ultra stable tier, but I wouldn't hold my breath. |
