Prominent closed source software released to the LSB spec?
I was reading about the LSB standard and there's a lot of differing opinions about whether the standard actually achieves what it's meant for. So, I would like to know whether this has proved to work in practice. My question is, is there any prominent closed-source software (like an application for consumers) by an ISV that has been released according to the LSB standard that works across all compliant distros without repackaging? Also, is there any distro that's strictly fully-compliant with LSB?
Hi, thanks for your reply. I get the following error when I try that, which is the same one as I got when I tried adding them while creating the thread:
Some tags couldn't be added for the following reason(s):
