Yep, been in the same boat 😂. Was an LTS fan for a long long time till I realized… this shit ain’t worth it 😂.
Everthing there is out there in 99% of the cases compiles against latest libraries. And well, LTS is just… lagging behind 🤷. So, you solve one lib dependcy and then, bam, another one pops up… OK, solved that one, bam, another one 😒… it just gets frustrating to compile stuff on LTS.
And then you get all sorts of errors from the package manager cuz you did the unthinkable - install latest libs on an LTS distro.
LTS is good for one thing only nowadays - servers.
That is true on any LTS distro. Try rolling release, works without a glitch almost every time… well, at least on Void it does.
I read the previous comment and thought to myself “I bet there is some reply about LTS vs rolling release to this”. I KNEW IT!

Interesting. I did not know about that. I’ll be sure to give rolling a try then.
