[0.11.7] Linux x64 on Ubuntu 12.04 doesn't start

Post by chedar »

When I run the bin file from command line I get the following error:

./factorio: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.16' not found (required by ./factorio)

This was reported for 0.11.5 here https://forums.factorio.com/forum/vie ... f=7&t=7147

Like cube already said, they will build it against a lower version. Looks like that didn't happen with 0.11.7 oder 0.11.8, so you can only wait. :/
Greetings, Nova.

Can't he play "stable" in the meantime at least?

It's possible to pull newer (g)libc from 12.10 without doing the upgrade of course.
It might also be possible to download the library in question into another dir and LD_PRELOAD it.
NOTE: The "C library" is an essential part of the system. Don't mess with it unless you can face the consequences.
