We tried to get UNO on YoBit awhile back, but their tech support said that they could not get the wallet compiled.
I'm not technical, is that legit? Or, did they just not want the coin there?
I'd love to have it on YoBit as well!
Hard to say from a distance. When I last compiled UNO on Ubuntu Linux a few months ago it was no problem. I followed the guide by siameze (thanks for that) and it just worked.
BUT I had just set up a clean VM for that purpose and fetched all the specific stuff required for UNO. If they're using an existing system I guess they might run into a similar problem I did when trying to build UNO on Windows: that turned out to be a lot more complicated, mostly because it was difficult getting just the right versions of all the dependencies. If you get a wrong version of some library (too old/too new) then the build will fail. Altcoins based on bitcoin core 0.9 will require different libs than those based on 0.10 (like UNO) or 0.11 and other coin-specific changes might also come into play - that could be a problem they ran into.
tl;dr: on a fresh Linux VM building the UNO client can be done in a few easy steps, but on existing setups or other OSes a lot can go wrong...
Clear instructions can be found here:

My opinion: Any exchange that can't seem to get it compiled should not be trusted with your money. They don't know what they're doing.
Any exchange that is hosting wallets on a non *nix OS should be completely ignored for incompetence.
And of course I'll remind you that if your coins are on an exchange they aren't your coins anymore...
