GLIBC_2.33 errors when installing on Ubuntu 23.04

[gjm]

I think this is the same problem as in #29

This is generally a cosmetic issue - does it actually cause emacs to fail to work correctly? For myself I see the following printed on startup:

$ emacs -q

(emacs:1077112): Gtk-WARNING **: 23:20:05.470: /snap/emacs/1970/usr/bin/../../lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.33' not found (required by /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libibus-1.0.so.5)

(emacs:1077112): Gtk-WARNING **: 23:20:05.471: Loading IM context type 'ibus' failed

But emacs works correctly.

I can try and look into fixing this but it would be good to know if it is causing an actual issue. Thanks.

Yes I get the same output. Emacs starts and seems to work fine, yes.

If it's only cosmetic and harmless is there a simple way to omit the output? Other than redirecting it?

With 3ed058e this should now be fixed - new snaps will build shortly and be published to beta etc in the next hour or two. If you could please refresh to this and let me know if it is fixed for you that would be great.

[gjm]

How can force snap refresh? I see in snapcraft.io that the package is updated but my system tells me it's up-to-date.

[gjm]

Nevermind... seems to have updated itself silently... Errors are gone! Thanks!

I am encountering this issue with ubuntu 22.04 since the latest build, i.e.:

GNU Emacs 29.1
Development version cf57ec68c2a5 on master branch; build date 2023-08-04.

More precisely, the following error occurs when running jupyter-run-repl on my setup:

byte-code: Module could not be opened: "/home/martibosch/snakemacs/straight/build/zmq/emacs-zmq.so", "/snap/emacs/2163/usr/bin/../../lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.33' not found (required by /home/martibosch/snakemacs/straight/build/zmq/emacs-zmq.so)"

I have tried reinstalling emacs and re-compiling everything but I still encounter this. Any clues of how my I fix it?

Thank you. Best,
Martí

@martibosch please see #66 - the issue you are seeing is specific to loading modules into emacs.
