Hello,

SHORT VERSION:

BTW, Ubuntu 12 is officially End of Life on April 28, 2017

http://releases.ubuntu.com/12.04/

So unless you are paying them for support, you should really upgrade to Ubuntu 14.

LONG VERSION:

I recommend starting a docker image of centos 6 in a newer version of Ubuntu. This would be a virtual machine environment you can build a version with a newer compiler, g++, but with an older glibc. The libstdc++ you link against would then be compatible with most modern distributions.

This is by getting the devtoolset-6 or devtoolset-7 tools provided by redhat. You can communicate with me offline on how to do this, but in principle the installation of the compiler is this:

yum install -y centos-release-scl
yum install -y devtoolset-6-gcc devtoolset-6-gcc-c++ devtoolset-6-libquadmath-devel devtoolset-6-gcc-gfortran

Docker is freely available and used across the open source community to build for multiple linux versions. It can be installed directly from ubuntu as a standard package.

You can then package the application, and it would more than likely run on your system.

Regards,

Juan

I just discovered that CMake no longer builds on my Ubuntu 12.04. I
need to build binaries that are compatible with that ABI.

I see that your binary distribution of CMake 3.11 still works on
Ubuntu 12.04. Can you tell me what you do to achieve this? What are
you doing for your official builds?

Are you just using -static-libstdc++ -static-libgcc for
CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS, or is there more?

(I just noticed that ldd shows that you don't have dependencies on
libssl, libcrypto, and libz, whereas I do.)

Thanks,
Eric
