I don't like having to install some five different SDKs on one Linux-installation, as typically none of them do it quite like the distribution intended, and creating all sorts of collisions Tue, 23 Jan 2007 20:44:00 GMT donotreply@osnews.com (ptman) Comments http://osnews.com/thread?205064 http://osnews.com/thread?205064 Ensures you get all the toolchain properly configured, and also stays completely sparate from your system.

Nice. Tue, 23 Jan 2007 21:41:00 GMT donotreply@osnews.com (RenatoRam) Comments http://osnews.com/thread?205240 http://osnews.com/thread?205240 why don't they add support to QEMU instead ?
it's way more portable (due to being Free Software) than vmware, which even on Linux is probably only available on x86 and maybe 86_64 arch...
But who cares about Solaris, BeOS, RISCOS, AmigaOS...

I think this package is mainly focused on windows / osx platforms (yeah, parallels can use vmware images) and for that kind of use, speed is of the essence.

But, if you feel like you'd like qemu support, you can always make one yourself and offer that.
