I tried to get the Debian GNU/linux build running. After unpacking and
copying it under /opt/<sidebar>/I tried to start it as with the start
menu as via console.

I get the error "The application cannot be started. An internal error
occurred."

This for your information.

Note that Andre produced two distinct 0.7 builds. The first one, as he 
says above, will run on older systems soo. The second one, which is the 
currently available one and was done to fix a last-minute error, only 
runs on modern systems, i.e., it requires glibc >= 2.17, as discussed 
later in this thread.

On Debian it seems you still have glibc <= 2.13 so it won't start:

(then your problem might be elsewhere, but this is just to say that the 
"more people can try it out" from the message you quote no longer applies)
