Hi, Sergii!
Question to clarify: The release notes say "tested on Fedora, Ubuntu 22 and Debian 12" but then also "This release was built for 3 distributions of RedHat family: CentOS 7, Debian 12, Ubuntu 22.04, Fedora 39," which is confusing in a couple ways: there are four distributions listed, not 3, and of course Debian and Ubuntu aren't in the "RedHat family." And then in the download artifacts there are specific tarballs for CentOS, Fedora, and Ubuntu--but not Debian. What list of distributions is this actually expected to run on?
(I ask because out of curiosity I tried the Ubuntu tarball on Debian 12, and ran into some errors.)
