You can do this on linux too, make a chroot, done.


Windows doesn’t need a chroot and a separate install base. You can build one binary for Longhorn, using the Windows 11 SDK, and it will run on everything from NT4 to 11 without modification.


*assuming you wrote it in such a way to be able to do it


Yeah, and then hope that the tools that you need to build even run on some ancient glibc version.


Stuff like innosetup?
