Description
Hello, I am trying to use proxychains4 to launch discord app and encountering a GLIBC error.
$ ldd --version
ldd (Ubuntu GLIBC 2.39-0ubuntu8.3) 2.39
$ proxychains4 discord
[proxychains] config file found: /usr/local/etc/proxychains.conf
[proxychains] preloading /usr/local/lib/libproxychains4.so
[proxychains] DLL init: proxychains-ng 4.17
discord: /snap/snapd/current/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.38' not found (required by /usr/local/lib/libproxychains4.so)
As far as I understood, reading documentation all around the Internet, I have to either:
- recompile libproxychains with a newer version of GLIBC (have no idea how to do that)
- downgrade my system's GLIBC (which seems like suicide)
- download an outdated GLIBC_2.38 and hide it somewhere, then launch libproxychains with LD_LIBRARY_PATH='path-to-2.38'
I ask for assistance.
