Tell me, why is there no custom version of gedit for each individual
distribution? Or Python? This is a crazy idea. The problems are not
because it is insufficiently tailored to one particular distribution that it
works flawlessly on, the problems are because it does not work properly on
Linux!
There is no "Linux" per se. Linux is like blocks, modules that people
snap together at will. Without a known set of variables, Rev is very
likely to fail in some areas depending on which software the current
user has installed.
In a past RevUp newsletter, Bill Marriott also talks about the same thing:
***
The Challenges of Linux
There are literally hundreds of variants of Linux, and while the
emerging leader on the desktop is Ubuntu, the lack of standardization,
even within a single distribution, can create headaches for anyone
wanting to support the Linux platform.

I agree there are problems, we all do. But the obstacles are high.
