Description

  • VSCode Version: 1.84.2
  • Local OS Version: Win11
  • Remote OS Version: Debian aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc
  • Remote Extension/Connection Type: remote tunnels

[2023-11-29 15:51:56] error This machine not meet Visual Studio Code Server's prerequisites, expected either...:   - find libstdc++.so or ldconfig for GNU environments
  - find /lib/ld-musl-aarch64.so.1, which is required to run the Visual Studio Code Server in musl environments

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. curl -Lk 'https://update.code.visualstudio.com/latest/cli-linux-arm64/stable' --output vscode_cli.tar.gz
  2. tar -xf vscode_cli.tar.gz
  3. ./code tunnel

Continuing from #9229. This must be the same problem as #7495 (also see #7631). Looking into prereqs.rs and "fn check_glibcxx_version()" it seems the "DEFAULT_LIB_PATH" is set to "/usr/lib64" on my device that uses "/usr/lib". Arm32 is supported but when upgrading such to arm64 with same OS paths will then fail..
