Where we’ve run into something similar before was the NCI gdc-client.
#on centos 6.9
cd /tmp
wget
https://gdc.cancer.gov/system/files/authenticated%20user/0/gdc-client_v1.3.0_CentOS7_x64_Beta.zip
unzip gdc-client_v1.3.0_CentOS7_x64_Beta.zip
rm gdc-client_v1.3.0_CentOS7_x64_Beta.zip
ldd gdc-client
linux-vdso.so.1 => (0x00007ffe1d33e000)
libdl.so.2 => /lib64/libdl.so.2 (0x000000313ce00000)
libz.so.1 => /lib64/libz.so.1 (0x000000313d200000)
libc.so.6 => /lib64/libc.so.6 (0x000000313c200000)
/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x000000313be00000)
gdc-client -h
./gdc-client: /lib64/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.14' not found (required
by /tmp/_MEIBBRbAt/libz.so.1)
WTF? It unpacks its own libz, and who knows what else, in a
subdirectory of /tmp, and that libz is linked to the wrong glibc
version. Even though the one the binary itself is linked to is the
system libz, which is fine with the system libc. The subdirectory name
changes each time. "strings" shows that gdc-client is full of symbols
starting with "Py". So it is a python based binary of some sort. Leave
it to the US government to come up with something this nutty.
(Although, to be fair, the NCBI uses a different download tool called
"Aspera client" which has none of these issues.)
As it happens in this instance, this was a miscommunication. What the
user was doing was installing an R package to a copy of R they’d
installed with GCC 5.4 which was supplied by a module.
If a different compiler/environment was needed to build some program,
and that program can itself build more programs, then in general it must
be run in the same environment in which it was built. For devtoolset
that would be something like:
scl enable devtoolset-4 'make' # builds "prog"
scl enable devtoolset-4 'prog -args' # builds other things
