/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libm.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.29' not found

How come opera failed by:

Code: Select all

/opt/opera/opera: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libm.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.29' not found (required by /opt/opera/lib_extra/libffmpeg.so)
/opt/opera/opera: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libm.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.35' not found (required by /opt/opera/lib_extra/libffmpeg.so)
/opt/opera/opera: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.34' not found (required by /opt/opera/lib_extra/libffmpeg.so)
How to solve it, would it need 3 kinds of work for suc 3 errors ?

The newer versions of Opera (a closed source program so we can't rebuild it) are built against libc6 2.29 or greater.
MX19 has libc6 2.28
Libc6 is a core library that almost everything else depends on so upgrading it is not a realistic option.

Your options are to upgrade to MX-21, or MX-23 when it goes final shortly (it's in a second beta release right now), or to get an older version of Opera from their archive. I believe this is the last version that works in MX-19
