I'm really triggered by the idea that Linux makes running old software easy. The bane of my existence is finding an application that depends on libButts.5.1, but my distro ships with libButts.5.3, which isn't backward compatible for some reason, and trying to install libButts.5.1 bricks the desktop environment for some reason.

I just searched for that lib, in an attempt to help you with the supposed problem. I won't deny, you got me there.

And this is what is actually good about Linux. :)
