[Bug]: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libm.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.38' not found

[MaximusPro]

Detailed steps on how to reproduce the bug

I have a bug on LinuxMint when i start a Projucer on the terminal. But i have glibc

./Projucer: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libm.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.38' not found (required by ./Projucer)
./Projucer: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.32' not found (required by ./Projucer)
./Projucer: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6: version `CXXABI_1.3.15' not found (required by ./Projucer)
./Projucer: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.38' not found (required by ./Projucer)

I tried to install packages on synaptic.

glibc-doc
glibc-doc-reference
glibc-tools
linux-libc-dev-i386-cross
linux-libc-dev-x32-cross

And reinstall libc-dev on the terminal: sudo apt reinstall linux-libc-dev. But this is not solved the problem.

Operating systems

Linux

What versions of the operating systems?

A similar issue has previously been discussed on the JUCE forum: here

In short, you may need to use an older glibc when building. The easiest way to accomplish this is to use an older Linux distro. If you don't want to reinstall your existing distro, then maybe a virtualisation tool like virtualbox or docker might be helpful.

hello, I suppose that @MaximusPro was talking about the binary Projucer which is already provided in the zip file at https://juce.com/download/

➜  JUCE ldd --version
ldd (Debian GLIBC 2.36-9+deb12u9) 2.36
Copyright © 2022 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

As you said @reuk, the binary has been compiled with an up-to-date distro.
For example debian provides GLIBC 2.36 for their current stable release: https://packages.debian.org/bookworm/libc-bin

To solve this, users with an older version of glibc must compile Projucer themselves cf. https://github.com/juce-framework/JUCE?tab=readme-ov-file#the-projucer

(Note: I'm pretty new to C development etc. I may have said incorrect things)
