Dear Debian Mailing List,
I am working on a project which requires libc6. When I build this
project on my laptop, the project works fine as it builds for the libc6 on
my laptop, however, when I build it in Github actions, the project fails to run, due to Debian not having a libc6 version as low as GLibC 2.32. I've
tried to compile my project to musl, statically, and even just embedding
the correct version of libc6 in the lib folder that I set my rpath to. I've either had segfaults or failed builds. I would like to ask how I can either support an older version of libc6 or upgrade any customers' systems to the correct version. I'd also happily accept not requiring libc6 at all.

How may I achieve this?

Thank You,
Alexis

It's not clear whether you need a version lower than 2.32, higher than
that or exactly that one.

FWIW, Debian stable has 2.31, soon-to-be stable testing 2.36 [1], so perhaps testing fills your bill.

All in all, I think you'd have to take this up with Github, not with
Debian.

Cheers

I discovered there are more lists than just this one, so I'll be forwarding
the email to the appropriate list (which I believe to be debian-glibc@lists.debian.org). I should mention, I'm so glad I only
supplied my first name as I did not know that y'all could even get the name
I supplied to Google, much less that it would be published. I would rather
not publish my name and only be referenced by email

Hi Alexis,

Note that the debian-project mailing list is for internal discussions of the debian-project; debian-user is probably a better mailing list for questions such as this.

The basic fact is that Linux binaries built in one environment are not guaranteed to be portable to run on other Linux distributions (or other versions of the same distribution).

If github actions give you the option of building in a Debian stable environment, that would address your needs.

But I wouldn't generally regard github as a production build environment.

The other option is that you can wait for the next Debian stable release,
which will bring glibc 2.36...

How may I achieve this?

Thank You,
Alexis

If you want to support running on stable consider building on stable. You
may want to consult Github actions documentation to see if it's possible
and how to do that.
Please also note that the user support list is debian-user@.

I've
tried to compile my project to musl, statically, and even just embedding
the correct version of libc6 in the lib folder that I set my rpath to. I've either had segfaults or failed builds. I would like to ask how I can either support an older version of libc6 or upgrade any customers' systems to the correct version. I'd also happily accept not requiring libc6 at all.

Out of all of these options building on an older system sounds the best
and the easiest.

Try changing your job to run on an older runner image: https://docs.github.com/en/actions/using-workflows/workflow-syntax-for-github-actions#choosing-github-hosted-runners

For instance, ubuntu-18.04 will build against glibc 2.27.
