Last update: 16 May 2018 - Related to version: Eddie 2.14.4
Any Linux distribution has at least:a different graphics server (X11, Wayland) a different desktop environment (GNOME, KDE, LXTE etc.) a package manager with a specific format (deb, rpm, tar.xf etc.) a different packaging signature for trust and security a different method to obtain administrative privileges, required by advanced features of Eddie (also because OpenVPN requires them) a different set of packages used by our client, that sometimes have different names (for example 'stunnel4' under Debian, 'stunnel' for Fedora) maybe a different DNS management. We are working at our best to support every kind of configuration managed by our source code directly, when possible.
 
Tested without known issues
Debian (tested 7/8/9) Ubuntu (18.04 GNOME tested) Ubuntu Mate (18.04 tested) Devuan (tested Ascii) Mint Arch (XFCE tested) Fedora (28 tested)

With minimal issues
openSUSE (Tumbleweed KDE tested)
openSUSE (Tumbleweed GNOME tested)
  Works, with no tray icon. Elementary
  Works, but tray icon, web and folder links don't work.

Fatal issues
 
None known.


Tech notes
Sometimes Tray icon works, but it is not shown because the desktop environment hides it.
For example, latest GNOME may require a separate shell extension (generally TopIcons). Currently Eddie 2.x under Linux requires root privileges (like GParted or Synaptic Manager).
Elevation is generally obtained with a polkit policy file (pkexec) if installed, otherwise fallback methods are used when available (gksu, kdesu, beesu etc.).

When the UI runs as root, there are four -optional- actions that are performed as normal user: tray icon, notifications, open web links and open file folders.
If it is not possible to act as a normal user, such actions are not performed at all.

A totally separated UI (as a normal user) vs. root-actions (as root user, service or separate process) is currently under development.

Needed improvements
Minimal lintian warnings on .deb edition General info details on .deb edition (for example, reporting Proprietary as License, not true.) General info details on .rpm edition (for example, reporting Proprietary as License, not true.) Create official package for AUR and other distributions. Create packages also for CLI-only edition. Create packages based on direct source compilation. Procedures to include Eddie in official/standard repository
