Not exactly. The only things you need to handle are : - An old enough glibc (glibc is backward compatible) - static link as much as you can (I know this is against the unix way, but the only way to workaround most of the compatiblity issues). This is pretty much what macOS apps do by shipping .framework within .app. Beside this, QT and GTK will pretty much always be available.
