Rust Server Requires GLIBC_2.8

[the-architech]

Hey guys, when running the aw-server-rust on CentOS 7 I get the following error:

./aw-server-rust
./aw-server-rust: /lib64/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.18' not found (required by ./aw-server-rust)

I built the packages in CentOS 8 Docker container and it worked just fine. As far as I know upgrading GLIBC to 2.18 on CentOS 7 at the moment is not possible.

Are there any plans to support CentOS 7 on rust server?

Since CentOS 7 was released in 2014 and has it's "full updates" EOL in just a few months (2020-08-06) we will probably not make this a priority in time.

Doesn't it work if you also build it in a CentOS 7 environment?

Edit: Looks like glibc 2.18 was released on 2013-08-12. We're probably not going to support an older version than that (officially).

Edit 2: Yep, looks like just building with an older version of glibc should work: rust-lang/rust#57497
