ERROR: Your glibc library is older than 2.3.

I think you would figure this out by now. Posting this for the future reference:
It appears to be an error in installer script, for more details see here: http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FP-4478
As a workaround you can copy the .so file to the install folder. If you need to figure out what's the install folder, install the player through web installer (FireFox will offer to install the player if you navigate to a page containing SWF).
