This is partly true. The problem is that Debianpackages suck and in 
consequence Ubuntu. I don't know how RH/Fedora and OpeNSuste are. Sadly, 
this is a big market percentage.

However e.g. OpenBSD and FreeBSD are quite up-to-date. NetBSD seems 
acceptable too.

Gentoo is also quite reasonable, offering even the choice of all 3 
backends! The Application scenario is also quite up-to-date Kudos, Bernard!
