I admit the "Subject" is a teeny bit of a troll. I have traditionally not worried that Linux emulation would not be sufficient --- a) many things come as source and b) linux code is by definition public --- so we'll have none of the problem a-la-wine. But our linux emulation is based on 5-year-old version of linux (ie: fedora core 10). That, combined with the laundry list of binaries requiring modern linux libraries (Steam and Multicraft (a minecraft framework) are at the head of my list) have me in a bit of bind. Is anyone working on a newer linux-base port?
