Hi,
OpenSUSE Leap 15.2 seems to come with and compile its packages against
GLIBC-2.26 which is release in August 2017. Looks like many packages available
from third parties have been using later versions of GLIBC (>= 2.29). One
particular package I encountered a problem with is 'vlc media player' provided
by OpenSUSE repos. It installs fine, but requires 'vlc-codecs' to play many
media types. When I try to install 'vlc-codecs' provided by 'VideoLanClient' or
in the 'packman' repositories, they are using 'vlc-codecs (3.0.11-4.2)' which
was compiled against GLIBC-2.29 and complains of the dependency. This is but
one example of a package that doesn't work properly (that worked well in Leap
15.1). There seems to many other packages like this. This bug report might be
similar to https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1173734 but for a
different package. This same issue is also causing 'gstreamer' when trying to
use 'libav' codecs. If you need further information on this, please let me
know.
Thank you,
Reddy
