I'm using Debian on most of my machines and I am fairly happy with it.

The python that's currently in Debian is fine for bitbake 1.8.x.  By the
time OE starts to require bitbake 1.10.x, I suspect Debian's python
support will have caught up: failing that, you can always install the
package from Ubuntu.
