but I still have it, albeit old. Yet even this old Ubuntu
version I have is more current than RedHat (Centos) 7 on
libraries. So I still use it. Time will tell if Debian can
fully replace Ubuntu. They do a good job of coordinating
alot of software. However my hope is Debian does too. Time
will tell and I am not in a hurry. Mainly I use Debian for
embedded stuff and I have come to really like it.</span></span></div>

<p>Well Ubuntu is made out of Debian, just not the stable branch. So
in my mind it's already got the high ground. :-) But it gets back
to the old saw: You can have it fast, you can have it good, you
can have it cheap, pick any two. The stable branch is stable
'cause releases don't happen fast and the extra testing is not
cheap. This may be naive, but it seems Ubuntu shares an approach
with Microsoft (+/-): why bother with a lot of testing when your
users will trip over and report bugs for you? I can say with
absolute certainty that this is the attitude TI uses for their
tool chain releases for Linux hosts as, on top of a very casual
(but commercially clear-eyed) stance they don't even bother to
test with up to date versions of Ubuntu! Now when I get hosed by a
newly discovered bug in their tools the first thing I do is try it
out on a Windows system to avoid wasting time. But to be fair I
should repeat that I have never, ever found a code generation
error or linker error with the TI tools (and I use the TI
compilers as well as gcc). My moans are about host-specific stuff
inside Eclipse and some of their probes and other gadgets that
have scandalous flaws that don't directly affect the quality of a
target system.</p><div class="yiv3775487165yqt4842382287" id="yiv3775487165yqtfd29018"><br clear="none">
