Okay, really, this question as not that much to do with Racket, but… As part of the ‘portaudio’ package, there are a number of shared libraries. It turns out that I’m going to be teaching in a room running an ancient Linux (CentOS 6?), and when I try to start portaudio, I get an error message indicating that my shared library wants a GLIBC with version >= 2.14, and this machine has 2.12, dating back to 2010.
So, here’s my question: would it be likely to solve my problem to just statically link my library against a current version of glibc, or is this an Extremely Bad Idea because the version of glibc that’s installed on a machine knows things about the OS that would be broken if I were to use a statically linked library? … Or is there some other thing I should be doing? I see that DrRacket starts up fine, which suggests to me the racket has solved this problem. Many thanks in advance!
