GLIBC_2.39 not found (cannot run on Ubuntu 22.04)

Open einarpersson opened this issue 4 months ago • 2 comments

Hi,

When running the binary under Ubuntu 22.04, I get GLIBC_2.39 / GLIBC_2.38 not found.

I don't know how hard it is, but it would be nice if the pre-built binaries would have a less strict requirement on the GLIBC version so that it can be run effortlessly on Ubuntu 22.04 and similar distros that does not have latest GLIBC.

Hmm, we could certainly pretty easily add builds for Ubuntu 22.04 or replace the Ubuntu-latest ones with older ones as they should be compatible. I'm uncertain what's the best-practice here (which might also be not offering binaries for older OS versions).

In the meantime you can always install via cargo.

I would appreciate it. If upgrading from Ubuntu 22.04 to 24.04 was low risk / trivial i would already have done so but i have read troubling testimonies which makes me want to postpone that operation to a later date. Ubuntu 22.04 is not the latest but it is a LTS which means there will be many users still in 2026-2027.

Thank you for considering this!
