Same issue here, building from source seems to work though! (took about 5 minutes for me)

Same issue on Debian 12 (Bookworm):

$ ./Claudia_v0.1.0_linux_x86_64.AppImage
claudia: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.39' not found (required by claudia)
claudia: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.38' not found (required by claudia)

$ ldd --version
ldd (Debian GLIBC 2.36-9+deb12u10) 2.36

The AppImage requires GLIBC 2.38+, but:

• Ubuntu 22.04 LTS has GLIBC 2.35
• Debian 12 (stable) has GLIBC 2.36
• Even Ubuntu 23.10 only has GLIBC 2.38

This means the AppImage won't work on any current LTS or stable distribution. It seems it was built on Ubuntu 24.04 or similar, which has GLIBC 2.39.

Suggestion: AppImages should be built on the oldest supported LTS (like Ubuntu 20.04 or Debian 11) to ensure maximum compatibility. Building on newer systems defeats the purpose of AppImage's "run anywhere" promise.

As @platelminto mentioned, building from source works perfectly since it compiles against your system's GLIBC version. But ideally, the pre-built AppImage should work on stable/LTS distributions.

yes, same problem here - appimage and deb doesn't work.

[johnblommers]

Same here for PopOS 22.04.

Same here on Zorin OS 17.3

(and 30+ more complaint lines)

I thought appimages are supposed to be self contained like flatpaks?j

Pop!_os here too. tried the deb with same results of course.
