"""Anticheat""" software is inherently broken and shouldn't exist to begin with. I wouldn't be surprised if it's checking a checksum of all system libraries and refuse to start if the system isn't *exactly* what it expects it to be. Therefore, it will never work, and it's a dumb method to begin with, so it is purely its own fault.

So does anyone actually know what the problem is?
Rather than blaming glibc I'd rather assume that EAC is a broken piece of shit to begin with.

>>88019850
>Rather than blaming glibc I'd rather assume that EAC is a broken piece of shit to begin with.
You don't even need to assume all anti-cheat software is inherently broken pieces of shit, and can never be anything else. They're basically trying to turn your general-purpose computer into a console, so of course they'll never work well with a system like Linux that has even a modicum of flexibility.

>>88014267
Yeah, its proprietary borderline-malicious shitware designed to punish gamers on windows, of course its trash

>>88019670
You can ship your own glibc. If you can't work within the constraints of the platform, bring your own platform.

>>88019627
Honest question though, how do you actually compile against a version of glibc that is older than the one you've got installed? I've wanted to do this many a time in order to produce a more portable binary, but I've never found a way, and Jewgle sucks as usual.

>>88019518
>glibc update has broken popular games
Examples? glibc is backwards compatible so that shouldn't happen unless the game does something really retarded like use internal APIs. In such a case not even Windows would help you. What's problematic is running binaries compiled on a system with newer glibc on a system with an older glibc version.
>>88019875
That's right.
>>88019920
https://github.com/wheybags/glibc_version_header
Otherwise you can install an older version of glibc on your system next to the system glibc and pass it to gcc like so:

  -L "${glibc_install}/lib" \
  -I "${glibc_install}/include" \
  -Wl,--rpath="${glibc_install}/lib" \
  -Wl,--dynamic-linker="${glibc_install}/lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2"

Another option is to use some old Ubuntu or whatever and compile your shit there.

>>88019989
>Otherwise you can install an older version of glibc on your system next to the system glibc and pass it to gcc like so:
I know I could do that, but that's such a horribly inelegant solution. You'd think you'd be able to just pass some #define to the ordinary system headers or something.

>>88013019
how the fuck isn't there some program that warns users and/or devs about shit that WILL break before (or right after) it happens? I imagine it could be based on some kind of "event" (new package breaks dependencies for X, Y and Z packages).

Is copr easy to get into? I'm thinking about doing an inventory here about what I use and doing a personal repository there.

>>88020019
Yeah, that would be nice.
It's kind of ironic that all this mess is BECAUSE glibc cares about backwards compatibility so much. It keeps shipping multiple versions of many functions that behave slightly differently or contain certain bugs that software depends on. If there was no versioning there wouldn't be a problem...
Actually, it looks like you can do something like this:

__asm__(".symver realpath,realpath@GLIBC_2.2.5");

and it'll use the realpath function versioned at 2.2.5.

Why do people even dynamically link software?
Its utterly pointless just distribute portable statically linked executables

>>88021571
because if you run hundreds of programs each statically linked to the same libc you will waste half of your ram for it
with dynamic linking every program linked to the libc uses the same shared object in memory, saving ram, disk space, io, etc
for the same reason every single operating system dynamically links system libraries.

This is why games should be running in containers and Proton and Steam's runtime libraries fall short of providing that.

>>88027907
>containers
You are a geed.

>>88027915
Normally I don't advocate for them due to the overhead associated but I think the price is worth paying considering how most single player games are effectively orphaned after release with no code updates or patches and containers freeze the runtime dependencies and requires needed to run said application in time.

>>88027929
Well, except that if you're running the game in Wine the only thing that has any system level dependencies is Wine.
For native games they effectively do that anyway though with the Steam runtime.

>>88024627
this
When you use a distro that pushes updates to essential packages merely days after they're released, what do you expect?
If you want other people to test your stuff first then use a stable distro.

The change that caused this is completely innocuous. EAC must be doing something retarded for it to be affected.

Not really, Wine still has its own dependencies and relies on system level components and those definitely need to be locked down and frozen which will break with Linux distro updates, not least of which includes glibc in question.

>>88029843
It requires files from the version of glibc it was built against at runtime so it's not strictly static. If I re-call correctly the consequence of lacking these files is that DNS resolution does not work correctly. If you can live without this then it doesn't matter.

>average distro hopping retard

>>88030867
I have unironically used gentoo for 10 years and counting

>>88030853
The reason you can't safely downgrade is because glibc can run older binaries built against older versions of glibc but not the other way round

If you install glibc-2.36 and build bash against it and then were to downgrade glibc to glibc-2.35 you'd break bash. The other way round (build bash, upgrade glibc to glibc-2.36) is fine.

You can downgrade glibc in Gentoo, I've done it before. It's a pain in the ass though. The process is like this:

>Get list of packages
>Download stage3 tarball from Gentoo that has older glibc (pretty much guaranteed if it's stable, instead of testing, since there's a lag before glibc gets stabilised)
>Build binary packages in chroot
>Install binary packages outside of chroot

how do you think they retrieve the vendor string, genius?

>The reason you can't safely downgrade is because glibc can run older binaries built against older versions of glibc but not the other way round

Any reason for this?

What does this command do?

>>88031874
deletes the system

>>88013019
I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Linux, is in fact "World of Linux," or as I refer to it, "Linux Fantasy XIV." Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather a role-playing game around which those with no accomplishments can desperately form some sort of identity. You start off with your OS in an incomplete state, then you perform easily searchable, tedious manual quests trying to piece it together into something that is barely functional for a small set of tasks. Other Linux players congratulate you on playing the game and on your level progression, giving you a real sense of accomplishment for your virtual progress.

If you thought you were getting a real OS, you just don't understand Linux.

since they're doing symbol versioning, every changed function just gets aliased to a new name. you build app against that symbol, then downgrade to a library that doesn't have that symbol

I double whoopsie'd and thought I posted the wrong thing and deleted but it was right.
Just moves you back a generation. It's the dumb gut-reaction move and you'd have to find which generation you had the non-broken version but easier than arch. And I'm still just beginning so haven't learned the pinning and overriding shit yet

>>88013019
>It will never be a gaming OS.
and that's a good thing

>>88031937
goddamnit no I did post the wrong thing fuck I just meant
>nix-env --rollback
damn why am I retarded

>>88031937
>moves you back a generation
So it restores your system just like it was before you started the update? That sounds pretty useful.

Because Linux and Windows is the same.

Updooters BTFO once again. Enjoy your tinkertranny distros blowing up twice a month whilst my "boring" "outdated" packages continue to just work.

>>88026089
Yes. As much as most retards in the Linux community hate to admit it, the fact of the matter is that server side anti-cheat cannot possibly detect all the same cheats that it could on the client-side. The server has objectively less information about what the player is doing when compared to the client. This really isn't rocket science.

>>88031166
It's almost surely EAC's fault for doing something retarded with the executable headers that nobody other than them could have known about.

>>88031562
Wrong. They accept any version greater than the one they were compiled against.

>>88032358
It's obvious. You essentially have to make a choice. Allow spyware to run on your computer, or don't and miss out on the hot new hype multiplayer shooter

>>88031261
So now anti cheat software is still out there going strong, except you can't run your software on trannix anymore. Can't stop winning huh

>>88019875
chromeOS showed that linux can be locked down pretty good

>>88032928
can != should

>>88014170
How do you know that?
Maybe they did change how some function works.
Do .exes even have access to wine's memory space where all the .so are loaded? Why would some windows anticheat verify that the right version of glibc is present, or do you think that they specifically develop the anticheat to also run on linux?

and thank fuck for that
manchildren make the worst tech support posts
apple was right in dropping vulkan support

thank you for debugging and seething out loud archfaggots

That's what I was thinking.Seems like laziness on the behalf of the devs.

who cares

Just use votekick you tards.

>>88036971
not everyone is playing team boomer 2 where you can just kick anyone

>playing shit modern online games
I wish it would have just stayed broken. Those shit "games" aren't worth playing.

>>88026089
just dont send data a user shouldn't see and don't calculate things on client side
that's it. cheating problem is solved
the only reason cheats exista is because game programmers cant do their job

>>88034928
Nothing? What in picture would make you think there's anything wrong with them?

>>88037023
And then online gaming will die because lag will be unbearable.
I'm not saying this is a bad thing, by the way. Please, let fucking online gaming die. It's always been fucking shit relying on gimmicks and bad tricks to make it even halfway bearable and usable. Time for it to fucking die.

>>88013019
Anti-cheat is anti-consumer and anti-user. Any application using it isn't worth running.
Plus, if a libc upgrade broke it, it was doing stupid shit it shouldn't be and is vulnerable to vulnerabilities. Maybe introspecting the call stack, something only a dissembler should be doing, not the application at runtime.

>>88013019
Fucking retard. Imagine running the GNU system that was made to replace the closed source garbage that was UNIX and complaining about some kernel level spyware closed source bs not working. Fucking faggot go back to windows or macos.

if a libc update broke some proprietary shitware it's probably because it's riddled with non standard behaviour / UB, which means it has precisely 0% chance of working with musl

Gay Nigger Unix

Holy shit how is this even an issue? Write a fucking shell script that downloads the old glibc and prepend it to the path variable without exporting it outside of the script. All you need to do is wrap it with parentheses and release the 10 line script under the same license of the binary you’re downloading, and even then downloading it rather than bundling it should satisfy GPL terms

>>88040283
You could even expose it as a socket from a docker container with the old version. And then there’s whatever yarn, guix and nix are doing is called. This is definitely not the FOSS community’s fault. They already fixed it and it’s up to game developers to know what they’re doing

There are still certain subtle differences in the way the CPU behaves in a VM. Also devices like "RedHat VirtIO SCSI" are obvious hints.

Wait until he finds out what ApiSet Stub DLLs are

lesson learned
do not use arch
also use flatpack
