Description

System Information
Operating system: Linux Mint 17
Graphics card: Nvidia GTX 710

Blender Version
Broken: blender-2.80, 81ea815dcb6, glibc224, x86_64
I think the release date of this daily build is: 13-Dec-2018

Short description of error
Blender doesn't launch.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
When I double click on the “blender” file, nothing happens. I tried to open it using terminal but this error appears:

./blender: error while loading shared libraries: libmvec.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I tried this code but it doesn't work:

sudo apt install libc6

I also googled and it seems that I should update the whole distro but I would like to use the Linux Mint 17 for many reasons.

If your distro does not ship with a new enough glibc version, there is little to do but to update to a newer version of that dist if you want to run blender 2.8

You can still use 2.79. However, if you want to use new bleeding edge software (like blender 2.8) you should expect that you have to run the latest version of your dist too.
