Qt Creator 7 doesn't start on Ubuntu 18.04
-
I like to manage my Qt installation using the online installer and the Qt Maintenance Tool. This means that I am forced to update Qt Creator, which I usually like, but the recent update to Qt Creator 7.0.0 has caused Qt Creator to fail to start. When I run Qt Creator from the command line, I get an error stating that GLIBC_2.28 is not found:
./qtcreator: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.28' not found (required by /opt/Qt/Tools/QtCreator/bin/../lib/Qt/lib/libQt6Core.so.6)
This has forced me to install an older version of Qt Creator from the Ubuntu repositories. Is there something I can do to fix this problem so I can continue to use the latest version of Qt Creator or does Qt Creator 7.0.0 not support Ubuntu 18.04?
In case this is relevant, I have not yet installed Qt 6 through the Qt Maintenance Tool and still am using Qt 5 for the time being.

Okay so I'm getting that Qt Creator 7 is not supported on Ubuntu 18.04. Is that right?
That's right.

Qt Creator 7 cannot run on Ubuntu 18.04 because the official Qt 6 libraries cannot run on Ubuntu 18.04: https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/supported-platforms.html
