What should I recommend to new people ?
GCC (or clang) on Linux?
Sorry if this has been answered before, but I have honestly lost
track.
Quoting the wiki page, that is linked from the main compilation page
for that other OS:

*Status*
64bit mode and 32bit modes, both debug and release modes are known to
work
After installation, LO refuses to start with the following error
message:
The program can't start because VCRUNTIME140.dll is missing on your
computer.
Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem.

And, on the same page:
"
*Unsolved problems (help wanted)*
VC Runtime libraries are installed in wrong directory (redist libraries
for MSVC 14.0)https://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/detai
ls/1639267/c-runtime-and-mfc-merge-modules-for-x64-are-broken-install
-to-syswow64-instead-of-system32 ;- here MS claims that since VS 2015
U1, the merge modules for 64-bit runtime are fixedEven after MSVC 14.0
Upgrade 3 installation, and building LO, installing the msi package
refuses to start unless vc2015_redist package is installed separately.
There are two workarounds:
1. install MSVC 14.0 Redistributable manually:
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=48145.
2. patch C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Merge
Modules\Microsoft_VC140_CRT_x64.msm before building LO:
Open the merge module Microsoft_VC140_CRT_x64.msm with an editor,
and replace two lines in "Directory" section:
System64Folder.363ED482_721F_3A34_85B3_A96CD936D64F: TARGETDIR
System64Folder_amd64_VC.363ED482_721F_3A34_85B3_A96CD936D64F:
System64Folder.363ED482_721F_3A34_85B3_A96CD936D64F
with
System64Folder: TARGETDIR
