I don't think supporting every Linux / BSD / UNIX distro is possible. The rot started for QT when Nokia bought Trolltech. A lot of talent left then.
Well, Linux Mint is based on Ubuntu and before the rumors of the disappearance of Ubuntu, it has once again developed a version based on Debian.
LMDE is a Linux Mint project which stands for "Linux Mint Debian Edition".
Its goal is to ensure that Linux Mint can continue to offer the same user experience if Ubuntu were to ever disappear. It allows us to evaluate how much we depend on Ubuntu and how much work such an event would entail. LMDE is also one of our development goals, as such it ensures that the software we develop is compatible outside of Ubuntu.
