DISTRIB_RELEASE=19.3
DISTRIB_CODENAME=tricia
DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Linux Mint 19.3 Tricia"

I'm guessing that the prebuilt (downloaded) version of Viceroy was built on Ubuntu 20; I'm on Mint 19.3, which is wrapper around Ubuntu 18.04 LTS.

WORKAROUND

Built viceroy from source and hard linked it from cargo/.bin to .config/fastly.

Note I'm a Linux developer, running Mint 19.3 as my development environment. No docker here. :-)

Thanks @alameth for raising this issue, but I think this might be better passed over to the Viceroy team: https://github.com/fastly/viceroy to comment on as it's not a bug with the CLI.

The CLI is downloading the linux/amd64 version of the viceroy binary, and for whatever reason the GLIBC dependency required by Viceroy is not available (or more likely not up-to-date) on your system.

An alternative to manually compiling Viceroy would be to update your GLIBC version.

The user @lyrixx also had the exact same issue and workaround.

[alameth]

Upgrading the version of GLIBC on an LTS distro is hard, deliberately so; locally compiling viceroy was easy. :-) Thanks for the forward; this was just my best guess as to the correct team.

Ah, yeah I guess my suggestion was a wee bit ...optimistic 😄

No problem 🙂

Since there's a workaround for this issue, I'm going to close this for now and have it be superseded by #174 so that we can avoid this issue in the future. Thanks for taking the time to open up the issue @alameth
