Requirments are a pain. On different distributions they are located in different packages. I should install top 20 most used distributions and try to build on that distributin. That would be quite a fun process.

That's why I stick with Ubuntu (well Linux Mint actually). I have yet to run into a project or problem which didn't had instructions specifically for Ubuntu. You can also explore building with Nix to be platform/distribution agnostic.

  Isn't nix just for nixos?

    Nope! I use Nix on macOS every day. I also use it on Ubuntu. On Linux-based operating systems, you can even use `nix bundle` to create Docker images or fat binaries that end users can run without having Nix installed. (This relies on Linux user namespaces, which is why it's a Linux-only feature.)
