This would fall under the "System Libraries" aspect of the GPL. You are specifically not required to provide "System Libraries" along with the source code. Of course, if there is some unique aspect to your systems which is required to build the source code that you provide, then you must provide enough information for people to able to build the source code. But if your systems are more or less standard GNU/Linux, then you don't have to say anything about them. Ian
