Sorry for the confusion. I only meant that I was
tempted to say it, but I would be wrong in this case.
Normally, custom compiling can make it difficult to redistribute an app on Linux (especially when shared libraries are involved), because of different flavors of Linux, different kernels, different versions of shared libraries and such. But in creating a Live DVD, you're controlling all those aspects yourself. So in essence... it makes things somewhat easier. The only thing you have to worry about is whether a user's
hardware is up to the task of running all the programs on your live DVD. That shouldn't be a problem with Sigil unless someone has an older processor that doesn't support SSE2 (which should be getting more and more rare).
You could try installing one of my unofficial debian packages of Sigil 0.7.2 (links found in a thread a few posts down). Or at least extract the files from one to get an idea of what you need to minimally include to get Sigil 0.7.2 running on debian-based Linux (I created them on Mint 12 [Ubuntu 11.10]).
