Just curious - we run version 3 rather than 4 on most of our compile servers for compatibility with our customers, and it would be really useful to be able to run Cirrus on Linux directly, rather than swapping back to Windows anytime I need to do a comparison.

Tim,

Thanks for the reminder. Our supported distribution list hasn't been updated in a while. I'll check to see where we stand with supported distros and post an update here soon.

The current release (build 442) doesn't run on Redhat Enterprise Linux 3. This is due to a compatibility issue with the version of the standard C++ library on RHEL3 and the version we're using for Cirrus.

We would like to support RHEL3 because of the number of customers running it. Our developers are scheduled to research this issue, and we'll post an update once they look into it.
