-The "static" versions are standalone programs with no dependencies, so they should run on any Linux OS version. The non-static versions require a suitable version of GLIBC, which change with every OS. XRouter variants for older OS versions will generally run on later OS versions, but not necessarily the other way around. For example, the "stretch" variant will run on Bullseye, but the Bullseye version won't run on Stretch.

 If you don't have an existing XRouter setup, you will need a full release package. This is too big for the wiki, so you will need to download the "support files" and executable separately.

+The "vanessa" version should work on most recent flavours of Linux, especially if they are Debian or Ubuntu-based.
+The "static" version is completely self-contained, with no dependencies, hence it SHOULD work on any flavour of linux.  The downside of this version is that you MUST specify a Domain Name Server in XROUTER.CFG (e.g. DNS=8.8.8.8).  This is because statically-linked programs are not able to use the Linux resolver.
