Hi Carlos, We had the same problem trying to install ARP/wARP on our Debian 10 machines. TL;DR: you (or your sysadmin, since this requires root access) have to enable vsyscall as follows:
echo 'GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="vsyscall=emulate"' >> /etc/default/grub update-grub reboot An explainer (mostly from our sysadmin): vsyscall is a mechanism that accelerates certain system calls in Linux, apparently added as a way to execute specific system calls that don't need any real level of privilege to run. It's currently considered not very secure, which is why it's deactivated in many recent Linux flavors, including apparently Debian 10. The vsyscall = emulate setting seems to be the safest way to have vsyscall enabled while minimizing security vulnerability. Still, it seems like the best way to move forward is to compile the next version of ARP/wARP with the newer version of glibc. (some key insights obtained from this GitHub post and ones around it: https://github.com/microsoft/WSL/issues/1462#issuecomment-274398213 Hope this helps!
