The machines we use to build our Linux distributions are currently running 8.11, which is no longer supported by Debian. We could pay Freexian for Extended LTS support, or upgrade (or do nothing, of course :)). My understanding is that we generally use the oldest supported version of debian in order to make it more likely that our binaries will run on older machines. However, I freely admit that I’m not an expert in this area.
But some of you are! So here’s my question: if we upgrade to debian 9 or even (gasp) 10, would the resulting binaries run on earlier versions of Linux? Pointers gratefully appreciated.
