Well, my humble suggestion is to extend the bullet to read "Precompiled for Ubuntu 12.04 Precise (may also work on other distributions)."
Change to: probably _won't_ work on Debian and Debian-derived distributions.
It's a problem with 2.14 having been so buggy that Debian Wheezy decided to skip over it and go straight to 2.15 (along with many other distros, according to what I've read about the issue), but they had a freeze before upgrading to 2.15. Many distros are stuck on 2.13 for the time being, including Debian Squeeze.

I assume adding a check to "make install" is the more complicated way.

I can see the potential problems. I have however pointed out in the site in the next bullet immediately below the download links "Precompiled for Ubuntu (may also work on other distributions)." I guess I really need to move to the deb model of distribution...

Thanks Ico, I completely understood what you meant by compiling from source. I just wanted to point out that there is no notice with the download link nor a check during "make install" so the "best option for newcomers" binary can eventually screw up someone's installation, and that someone may or may not have the time/skills/heart to compile the thing from source. It's not 100% safe.
Me, I'll compile it as soon as I have some time.

Well, those are binaries you tried installing. The script included in the full package simply copies files, it does not do any dependency checks. What you need to do is to compile from source...

(Ouch) OK :)
I don't know what's possible during a "make install" but ideally it would check for the presence of the right glibc in order not to install something that won't work.

These were compiled on Ubuntu 12.04. If your distribution uses older version of glibc, you will have to compile your own from the dev package. Simply follow instructions on the software page. It is pretty much automated process provided you have installed all the dependencies (also listed on the page).
If anyone is interested in helping me package debs please contact me. Thanks! On Nov 9, 2012 10:28 AM, "András Murányi" muranyia@gmail.com wrote:
