Linux Problems

[whipowill]

Tim, I tried to update to your latest version, which I haven't updated in a while. I was met w/ this error:

./QSS-M-l64: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.33' not found (required by ./QSS-M-l64)
./QSS-M-l64: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.34' not found (required by ./QSS-M-l64)

It appears my version of Linux, which is the latest Zorin OS, only goes up to GLIB 2.31.

$ ldd --version

This is likely related to downstream Quakespasm requirements? Is this the same for latest QS?

Common issue when binaries are compiled with a newer glibc.

You can mark symbols to be linked to an older version explicitly.

See https://github.com/wheybags/glibc_version_header for more info/helpful scripts.

@whipowill this is the latest built on 2.27, let me know if it works

QSS-M-l64.zip

Same issue but strangely the errors are reversed in sequence:

./QSS-M-l64: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.34' not found (required by ./QSS-M-l64)
./QSS-M-l64: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.33' not found (required by ./QSS-M-l64)

Round 2. Try this version 🤞 QSS-M-l64.zip

I got this error:

./QSS-M-l64: symbol lookup error: ./QSS-M-l64: undefined symbol: SDL_FlashWindow

For what it's worth, I have another prebuilt game that is now also giving me the same error. This is bc apparently a Linux OS version that is 3 years old is "leaving you behind" age.

I'm going to try and solve this myself by building the new version of this library by following these directions: https://www.jertype.com/upgrading-glibc/

If it doesn't work I may just upgrade my OS this weekend.

The error means your version of SDL2 is outdated, SDL_FlashWindowi is a newer function.

I'm preparing to update my OS tomorrow. I'm sorry for taking up your time.

I updated my OS and the latest version of QSS-M is working now, but I did have to do these manually on my new OS:

$ sudo apt-get install libopusfile0
$ sudo apt-get install libmad0

And my bots crash the game, so I will have to investigate why. Thank you for trying to help me.
