Linux build environment

 

I'm forwarding a question from the kicad.info forum (https://forum.kicad.info/t/preferred-linux-kicad-build-environment/7446):

"Is there a preferred Linux Kicad build environment? I assume Linux since I personally use primarily Xubuntu 16.04, since it is the latest LTS. Are there any known build or dependency issues if building on Ubuntu 16.04? If so, is there a recommended version?"

A quick glance at the dev docs at http://docs.kicad-pcb.org/doxygen/md_Documentation_development_compiling.html didn't give much info on the build environment, just the necessary prerequisites.

Is there a preferred Linux distro/build environment?

I'll relay the answer(s) back to the forum.

Regards,

Ingo
