`GLIBCXX_3.4.29' not found

#1 Post by hgkruger »

I am installing Cmake from https://cmake.org/download/ and get this error at the end of the execution.

Mx-21.2.1 Wildflower is installed on a 64 bit Dell computer.

I see someone else reported this error (https://forum.mxlinux.org/viewtopic.php ... nd#p680189), but I don't seem to find the solution for it ( I am new to MX Linux and this forum).

I also don't seem to find a solution searching the internet?

Any help will be much appreciated!

Hi,

Don't install CMake from it's website, install it from the MX Repositories using MX-Tools-->MX Package Installer.. after that if for some reason you need a newer version of CMake then again using MX Package Installer enable the 'MX Test' Repo and upgrade it from there.. Your error is because Debian 11 the base of MX 21 doesn't have a new enough version of libc6 to build and run the latest CMake..
