/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.25' not found

[crenos]

'm having trouble installing glibc-2.25 on Ubuntu 16.04.7 LTS (GNU/Linux 4.15.0-142-generic x86_64). I compiled everything according to the tutorial https://www.programmersought.com/article/15369803326/ changing glibc versions of course. But I still have a message as in the subject. In addition, when it searches for libc.so.6, it gets the command find:" libc.so.6 ": No such file or directory with the find command. I can't update ubuntu because the Nvidi drivers and Cuda only work properly with this version.

Ubuntu 16.04 is dead there are no more Ubuntu repositories for it - you need to upgrade to at least 20.04

Unless they're using ESM. If that's the case, it's supported for 10 years, so until 2026.

libc.so.6

The libc.so.6 file is present in the libc6 package. you may need to install the libc6 package first

I get ESM on a bunch of devices (if I want) due to my status with Ubuntu. I think I can use 'em for commercial reasons, if I really wanted to.

So, with 10 years of support - for Ubuntu not the official flavors, though you can do so with the official flavors easily enough - I really don't have much of a need for any other distros.
