Hi, I'm a beginner developer but also a beginner in the Linux environment. I'm working on ArchLinux which allows me to have the latest versions of software and the latest versions of libraries. I am currently developing a game for Linux and a beta version is available. I tested the binary on the latest version of Ubuntu, it works very well. However, it does not run on the old version that has glibc 2.15. Less than compile this version of Ubuntu, I do not know how to make my game supports
I tried to dynamically linker to glibc 2.15 when compiling. It worked once for the i386 version, and since I am unable to make the game compatible with Ubuntu 12. In contrast, the amd64 version starts without any error. I spent a whole day on this problem, and I'd ask on the forum to see if there is not an easy way to make it compatible with my game the old version of Ubuntu.
I would think that users will update their systems to Ubuntu 13, but from what I understand, the updates are not simple. So some users are reluctant to update and therefore prefer to keep Ubuntu 12.
Could you tell me the right path to take? thank you
