[0.16.0] Factorio binary not executable on Centos 7.4, incompatible glibc version

[nosammai]

I run my headless server on Centos 7.4, and after updating to 0.16 I'm unable to run the factorio binary as it seems the version of glibc that the binary was compiled with has changed. As far as I know the latest supported version of glibc for el7 is 2.17. Is support for Centos 7 deprecated with factorio 0.16?

Code: Select all

./factorio: /lib64/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.18' not found (required by ./factorio)

Same problem here.

I also have this same issue in Centos 7. Hoping for a fix.

For anyone else encountering this issue, you can run this (alpine based) docker container on your CentOS server if you don't want to change distros:
