Are we worried about people who use non-Ubuntu-derived distros?

Like Debian? 8-)

Every once in awhile we have FreeBSD, Gentoo, Arch, RH and SuSE people dropping in... but for the most part they do their own thing. I'm only particular to Deb based distros becomes I'm a downstream Debian Dev/Maintainer and upstream (OpenMW) developer. I just want to know my audience.

Nothing against other OSes and distros though, more the merrier and hopefully someone steps up to fill the gaps. :) I can liaison if needed.

I updated today from 19.10 to 20.04. So one of the 19.10s in the above poll has already been moved to 20.04.

Two issues regarding OpenMW, which I list here for the benefit of anybody else striking similar problems:

Removal of qt4 by Ubuntu
Solved by using "cmake -D DESIRED_QT_VERSION=5 ../", then using a symbolic link to fix the missing dependency

Openscenegraph
Previously I had used the recommended version (3.4-dev I think) which I probably picked up from the openmw/openmw ppa. This no longer seems to be available, so I added the version from the default Ubuntu repository (appears to be 3.6.5).

Is it worth extending the Wiki's Development Environment Setup page to cover this? I would be happy to do that, after somebody checks my suggestions.

20.04 is in a bad shape... OSG 3.4 was removed and OSG was updated from 3.2 to 3.6.4... 3.6.4 is busted and doesn't work with OpenMW. You'll need OSG 3.6.5 from our PPA to fix.
