Commented [EB8]:
I use Ubuntu 14.4 LTS. I'm wondering if we
should be recommending 12.0 LTS. After all, it is 4 years old now.
Commented [AD9R8]:
I would agree. 12.0 does seem old. I'm
using Ubuntu 15.10 on the box I have.
Commented [Sd10R8]:
Actually, the GA5 won't build on 12 IIRC.
12 was our old system, not the new one. 14.04 LTS is our standard
and should stay that way for now.
