Sourcemod will stop working on Ubuntu. Solutions?
 

As some of you may have heard, Ubuntu will start dropping 32 bit libraries in Ubuntu 20.04 which will be released around April.

Due to backlash from gamers and Valve, they decided to add some libraries back in, but not all of them. A full list can be found here:

I looked through the list and it appears that some libraries needed for basic operation of sourcemod are missing: libc6, libgcc1, libmysqlclient.

Are there any solutions for this? What linux distro should be used instead?

Debian is supported and has always been my go to above Ubuntu. I also run Red Hat without issue as well.

But if I remember correctly, Valve builds and runs srcds_linux on Ubuntu.

libc and libgcc are basic requirements for all programs so must be provided regardless of what they’ve listed - libmysqlclient shouldn’t be required as we statically link it.

I can't say, but it was stated they used slackware. Also, Valve is not a good benchmark.
As for now, you shouldn't have an issue running in the environment you have. You could always run in a docker environment on your main distro.

Hi,
I have the same problem.
I use OS Linux Centos 6.9 and some extensions do not load.
exemple:
[SM] Unable to load extension "accelerator.ext": /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.14' not found (required by /home/csa_82/89.xx.xx.xx-27015/csgo/addons/sourcemod/extensions/accelerator.ext.so)

Another linux version must be installed ?

Thx,
