A big thanks to the Core Devs for all their hard work. This is a terrific release!
Same problem on (stock) Debian.
Bitcoin core doesn't run out-of-the-box:
/opt/bitcoin/bin/64/bitcoind: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.15' not found (required by /opt/bitcoin/bin/64/bitcoind)
/opt/bitcoin/bin/64/bitcoind: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.14' not found (required by /opt/bitcoin/bin/64/bitcoind)
Yeah, that was slightly annoying. Debian Stable uses glibc 2.13 (which was enough for the Linux build of Bitcoin 0.8.6). Maybe this is a sign that I should be joining the ranks of those that build from source each time.
For now, I'll just use the more recent version of glibc available in Testing. Here's a quick guide for anyone wanting to do the same:
Add:
deb http://http.debian.net/debian/ testing main
deb-src http://http.debian.net/debian/ testing main
to /etc/apt/sources.list.
Add:
APT::Default-Release "stable";
to /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/70debconf.
Run:
apt-get update
apt-get -t testing install libc6
