Unable to install Lighthouse 10.x.x on Amazon Linux 2

[Laxmynarayanan]

Summary

I tried to install Lighthouse 10.x on Amazon Linux 2 machine and getting below errors when trying to install lighthouse.

node: /lib64/libm.so.6: version 'GLIB_2.27' not found (required by node)
node: /lib64/libc.so.6: version 'GLIB_2.28' not found (required by node)

Options Tried:

1. Node version v16.13.2 was originally used but lighthouse got installed but failed to launch and got error message minimum node version required for lighthouse 10 is v16.16 or greater.
2. Tried to install v18.x Node version but was unable to install node on Amazon Linux 2.
3. Checked AWS documentation and found Amazon Linux 2 only supports Node v16.x. So installed Node v16.20.1 but lighthouse install fails with node: /lib64/libm.so.6: version 'GLIB_2.27' not found (required by node)
   node: /lib64/libc.so.6: version 'GLIB_2.28' not found (required by node).
4. Checked Amazon Linux 2 machine for GNU Libc version and it is 2.26.

Please let me know if it is possible to install Lighthouse on Amazon Linux 2 as I tried few options without any success. If not let me know if the Amazon VM needs to be upgraded to make Lighthouse work. Any other recommendations to use lighthouse in Amazon Linux 2 will be welcome

This seems like a very environment specific issue, here is a stack overflow issue I found that might be helpful: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/72921215/getting-glibc-2-28-not-found

Tried to install v18.x Node version but was unable to install node on Amazon Linux 2.

It's worth bringing up that Node 16 is reaching it's end of life in September and we plan on dropping support ourselves #15290.

I'm not familiar with Amazon Linux 2 so I don't know any strategies to get this working unfortunately.
