LIEF error in CentOS/RHEL distributions

nbeede commented 6 years ago

I'm running into an error trying to run Ember on a Cent based distro. It looks like pylief was built using a version of GLIBC that I don't believe is supported on RHEL/CentOS. Has anyone found a workaround or solution to this? I'm able to get it working fine on Ubuntu/Debian, but I need this to run on RHEL because "reasons".

Any help is appreciated!

Looks like there was an underlying issue in the LIEF library. The issue below reports the issue and shows that the project resolved it?

Confirmed it works. I was running into problems building it initially because my machine didn't have enough memory for the compilation.
