CDT, starting in CDT 12, will require newer versions of glibc. This aligns with the similar change made in Eclipse Platform. You can see that announcement below (second part of Christoph's email).
Hi Everyone,
since today, SWT[1] ships GTK4 support for Linux x86, to enable this
with your SWT Application you need to specify
SWT_GTK4=1
as an environment variable, please share any bugs or improvements and of
course any help for improving GTK4 is welcome.
There are currently some architectures outstanding to enable GTK4:
- aarch64
- ppc64le
- riscv64
reach out to the SWT team if you are interested in any of these and like
to see GTK4 for them as well!
As part of this effort it was required to update some build dependencies
resulting in a higher version of GLIBC (at least 2.36 for x86 other
architectures might require higher versions) this usually means you need
at least:
- Debian 12 or recent Ubuntu
- Centos 9
- ... or similar depending on your distribution
to run SWT (and in particular Eclipse) Applications, especially if you
are running UI tests and still using the deprecated centos-8 image [2]
you need to upgrade your builds to the new ubuntu based ones.
best
Christoph
