#### A note on Linux binaries and glibc version
*Skip this section if you are not running Linux or don't plan on using a released binary.*
Due to technical limitations in our reproducible builds system, the Linux binaries currently link
against `glibc` version `2.33`. This means you can't run a released Linux binary if your system has
an older glibc. This is the case most notably of Ubuntu 20 (Focal) and below, and Debian 11
(Bullseye) and below.
The simplest workaround is to simply build the project yourself. Fear not, it's really trivial if
you are a Linux user. Instructions [here](doc/BUILD.md).
See [this issue](https://github.com/wizardsardine/liana/issues/414) for details.
#### Apple, Windows, codesigned and notarized binaries
We distribute both a non-codesigned and a codesigned-and-notarized MacOS application

A note for **Linux users only**: released binaries may not be working on your system if it is
running a too old glibc. In this case you may have to build from source. See the [short section
about this in the README](../README.md#a-note-on-linux-binaries-and-glibc-version).
