[BUG] Fails to launch on Debian 11.6 and Ubuntu 20.04

[eliminmax]

Describe the bug

When running the latest version in Debian 11.6, I get the following error:

/home/eliminmax/.local/share/gh/extensions/gh-dash/gh-dash: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.32' not found (required by /home/eliminmax/.local/share/gh/extensions/gh-dash/gh-dash)
/home/eliminmax/.local/share/gh/extensions/gh-dash/gh-dash: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.34' not found (required by /home/eliminmax/.local/share/gh/extensions/gh-dash/gh-dash)

The reason is that the compiled binary depends of functionality added in newer versions of glibc - specifically versions 2.32 and 2.34.

As a quick aside: Building from source does not work on my system, with the following error:

../../.go/pkg/mod/github.com/mattn/[email protected]/runewidth.go:7:2: found packages uniseg (doc.go) and main (gen_breaktest.go) in /home/eliminmax/.go/pkg/mod/github.com/rivo/[email protected]
make: *** [Makefile:4: build] Error 1

That seems to be an issue with a dependency and/or my go setup, not this repo, but because of it, I can't determine whether or not it works if built from source. As an extra note about this, I have the golang-1.19 backport package installed, and added /usr/lib/go-1.19/bin to the beginning of my PATH.

Edit: Using /usr/lib/golang-1.18/bin/go from the golang-1.18 backport package works fine.

Steps to reproduce

1. Install in Debian Bullseye 11.6 with gh extension install dlvhdr/gh-dash, and run gh dash

Expected behavior
It launches properly

Desktop:

• OS: Debian GNU/Linux 11 (bullseye)

The same issue happens in Ubuntu 20.04.5 (it happens both on my machine as well as a clean docker image via docker run --rm -it ubuntu:20.04)

I would love to use this dashboard but don't plan on upgrading my Ubuntu install at least for another year or two :P

@eliminmax @bduffany till the issue is fixed you can compile the app on your local machine and move it to the extensions folder to make it work

an example of doing that if you are confused on how to do that
(go should be installed) clone the repo to local machine and run
go build && mv gh-dash ~/.local/share/gh/extensions/gh-dash/

My WSL was also suffering from this problem
OS version is Ubuntu 20.04.5 with WSL

I have not tried source compile, but I can confirm that updating to Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS solved this problem
