[MCL-9182] Minecraft Launcher 2.0.1005 Linux Error

Mojang,

The Minecraft (Non-Java) Launcher does not work for some reason.
Here is the Console Log:

./launcher: relocation error: ./launcher: symbol _ZTINSt8ios_base7failureB5cxx11E, version GLIBCXX_3.4.21 not defined in file libstdc++.so.6 with link time reference.

And also, dont tell me why i have an outdated launcher.

Anyways, Thank you!

Looks like you are missing a dependecy

What Dependecy? I dont understand anything it says on the log.

Please try to reinstall your local Java, and see if that fixes the issue.

I'm having the same issue with launcher 2.1.1349, on Linux Mint 17.3 (corresponds to Ubuntu 14.4/Trusty). The error reads ./launcher: relocation error: ./launcher: symbol _ZTINSt8ios_base7failureB5cxx11E, version GLIBCXX_3.4.21 not defined in file libstdc++.so.6 with link time reference

This is not a Java issue, libstdc++.so.6 is part of GCC. It means Mojang built/compiled the launcher on a version of Ubuntu NEWER than 14.04, and either needs to rebuild using Trusty/14.04, or change their listed minimum requirements to whichever version of Ubuntu they're building on now.

The only immediate fix is to upgrade Linux Mint to 18 or 19, depending on which build of Ubuntu the launcher's being built on.
