Linux binary works only on quite recent distributions #37

Closed ahasselbring closed 1 year ago

ahasselbring commented 1 year ago

In fact I haven't tested it on any other distribution than Linux Mint 21 (~ Ubuntu 22.04). Rudi reported that it doesn't work on Ubuntu 20.04. You can report further working / not-working distributions here. A solution can be to provide a simple command line server that serves the frontend and a web socket API (that would have a few more advantages than just reducing dependencies), but that is likely not going to happen before RoboCup 2023.

if you build the release on an old ubuntu with an old glibc i think it should work

jayenashar commented 1 year ago

It is known that the provided Linux binaries do not work on Ubuntu 20.04. You can report working / not-working distributions in https://github.com/RoboCup-SPL/GameController3/issues/37 or via email to Arne Hasselbring.

not working on debian 11 with glibc 2.31

ahasselbring commented 1 year ago

The CI-built binaries should support glibc>=2.28 (e.g. Ubuntu >=18.10 and Debian >=10, but still not Ubuntu 18.04).

jayenashar commented 1 year ago

image the draft is not published so i can't test on my system.

could you support 18.04 by changing https://github.com/RoboCup-SPL/GameController3/blob/master/.github/workflows/mkdist.yml#L18 ? from the git history, it looks like you only tried 20.04

ahasselbring commented 1 year ago

rc.2 isn't released yet on purpose. The latest build is available at https://github.com/RoboCup-SPL/GameController3/suites/13735406684/artifacts/760207080 (I don't know if you need special privileges to access that link, at least I can't download it without being logged in).

The 18.04 runner image is deprecated and should have been removed in April, according to GitHub.

thanks that works. for some reason i thought the CI/CD would only run on a tag/release and i didn't check the actions.

works on debian 11. i guess if we need 18.04 support we can try a static build or the a non-runner base image.

I don't think it is worth to do extra work to support deprecated distributions, at least not officially.
