The nice thing about Linuxbrew is that it lives in user land, so that you can install software on any linux distro, without root privileges. You can create binary distributions for Linuxbrew and Homebrew, and so long as the installation directory is standard for Homebrew, `brew install opencoarrays` should download and install a binary if it can. Similarly, linuxbrew will have the same functionality eventually, but for now, there is a limited subset of packages with binary \"bottles\". We may also provide links to bottles for binary installations, eventually, for both Linux and OS X.\r\n\r\nAnother idea that Damian and I should discuss is whether or not we may be able to provide Linux and/or OS X binary distributions ourselves.\r\n\r\nIf you know anything about creating linux packages, then we would welcome your help. However, I am weary of officially supported any linux package manager (other than Linuxbrew) because there are so many of them. I think that any support (there is some user contributed support for an Archlinux package, which might be out of date) for distro package managers will be 100% user contributed/supported unless we find compelling evidence to change this policy. Damian and/or Alessandro may have different opinions, I don't think we've discussed this at length, so consider these \"policies\" my suggested policies."}}
