.NET can be run on almost any Linux distribution, via:

- Portable builds, which are built to be broadly compatible with most Linux distributions.
- Distribution-specific builds, which are built specifically for a given distribution version (like Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9 or Ubuntu 24.04).
- Portable builds, which are built to be broadly compatible with most Linux distributions by support multiple versions of OpenSSL, ICU, and other depedencies.

in addition to the typo, the change is a bit hard to understand.

- Distribution-specific builds, which are built specifically for a given distribution version (like Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9 or Ubuntu 24.04) and the libraries that it contains.

The community provides best effort support for .NET across all Linux distributions. [Commercial support](support.md) is provided for some popular distributions.

Portable builds are compiled with an [intentionally old Linux version](https://github.com/dotnet/runtime/issues/83428) in order to provide broad compatibility. The primary purpose of this approach is linking to a sufficiently old libc library. The minimum supported libc version is documented in [.NET Supported OS Policy](./os-lifecycle-policy.md).

Microsoft build portable builds supports both [glibc](https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/)-based and [musl libc](https://musl.libc.org/)-based Linux distributions.
Microsoft provides portable builds that support both [glibc](https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/)-based and [musl libc](https://musl.libc.org/)-based Linux distributions.

The following examples demonstrate how to find the libc version provided for your distribution.
