Title: GLIBC
Post by: chronobox on March 02, 2003, 01:16:01 pm
When I try to start UQM, I get:
/lib/ld-linux.so.2: version 'GLIBC_2.1.1' not found (required by /path/to/uqm)

I'm on Slackware current.

-Thanks

I forgot to say that I DO have glibc-2.3.1 and glibc-solibs installed.

I get the exact same error message.  I'm running Redhat 8.0 and have Glibc 2.2.93-5 installed.

I just fixed the problem by building the source. Works great now!

Static binaries is non-trivial when some of the libraries (like libGL and libX) need to be dynamic.
If we patch SDL to open those libs manually (with dlopen & Windows equivalent), it should be possible.
That's beyond the scope of our current goals though. So I've replaced the 'staticly' linked installer by one
that doesn't load libc statically, and it might be slightly more portable.
'staticly linked binary' should be read in this case as a binary with SDL, SDL_image, libogg, libvoribis, libvorbisfile, libpng and libz linked in statically.
