`GLIBC_2.32` Error After Installing `llm-gpt4all` Plugin in GitHub Codespaces - Seeking Help to Get It Working

[hugobowne]

hi!

I encountered an issue when using the llm-gpt4all plugin in GitHub Codespaces. After installing the plugin, I'm unable to execute any llm commands, even unrelated ones. Here's a summary of the problem and my goal to get llm-gpt4all working in a Codespace.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Set up a GitHub Codespace with Python 3.10.
2. Install the llm utility and confirm it works correctly (llm models list runs as expected).
3. Install the llm-gpt4all plugin using llm install llm-gpt4all.
4. After the installation, run any llm command (e.g., llm models list).

Expected Behavior:

The llm commands should continue working, with the llm-gpt4all plugin providing additional functionality.

Observed Behavior:

After the installation, all llm commands fail. Here is the error I receive:

llm models list

Environment Details:

• Environment: GitHub Codespaces
• Python version: 3.10
• LLM version: 0.15
• llm-gpt4all version: 0.4

Goal:

I would like to get the llm-gpt4all plugin working inside a GitHub Codespace environment. I understand that the GLIBC_2.32 error is likely due to a mismatch between the environment's glibc version and the plugin's requirements, but I'd like to ask for your advice on how to make this work within a Codespace.

Request for Help:

• Is there a recommended way to ensure the correct glibc version or any other workaround that would allow the llm-gpt4all plugin to work properly in GitHub Codespaces?
• Could you suggest an alternative environment setup or configuration for running the plugin in Codespaces?

Thank you!
