I have an R installation problem involving the “arrow” package on Ubuntu.

Platform: Ubuntu 22.04.5 LTS (an Amazon EC2 vm).
Application: R version 4.5.1.
Installing Package: arrow
Error Message: package or namespace load failed for ‘arrow’ in dyn.load(file, 
DLLpath = DLLpath, ...):
unable to load shared object 
'/opt/R/4.5.1/lib/R/library/00LOCK-arrow/00new/arrow/libs/arrow.so':
/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6: version `CXXABI_1.3.15' not found 
(required by /opt/R/4.5.1/lib/R/library/00LOCK-arrow/00new/arrow/libs/arrow.so)
Error: loading failed
Execution halted
ERROR: loading failed

Description: the R package arrow requires /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6 
version CXXABI_1.3.15
I upgraded the library to the latest version via apt, but it lacks version 
CXXABI_1.3.15 (it has CXXABI_1.3.14). The only other possible library upgrade 
path seems to involve installing Anaconda which we cannot use due to licensing 
restrictions.
