GLIBC not found on cluster

[Blosberg]

encountered following error:

minimap2/minimap2: /lib64/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.14' not found (required by minimap2/minimap2)

while running on the cluster: need to either get this installed (through guix ?) or just wait until beast is back up.

Where does minimap2 come from?

This happens when you take a binary that is linked with a version of the GNU C library and move it to a system with an older C library (such as the cluster nodes). The solution is to not take the C library for granted, e.g. by using Guix.
