Unable to run quspin without GLIBC_2.17

I have installed quspin in my institute cluster, to which I don’t have administrator privileges. I have created a virtual environment in the conda and installed quspin in it. Once I try to run “python example0.py” I am getting this error.

python: /lib64/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.15' not found (required by python)
python: /lib64/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.14' not found (required by python)
python: /lib64/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.17' not found (required by python)

I tried to install GLIBC-2.18 in my local directory and added it to LD_LIBRARY_PATH. After that ls, ssh, and many such basic functions are giving

Segmentation fault (core dumped).

I understood that GCC and this version of GLIBC are clashing. I have found this answer, https://stackoverflow.com/a/44710599which suggested to use, patchelf, I tried installing using the steps in the, https://github.com/NixOS/patchelf which gave build-id.sh failed error in the “make check” stage.

I want to know while compiling CPP code or C code, one can use, -Wl, --rpath="/local/lib", is there a way to do the same with python. Please help with what to do to run the quspin code.

This looks weird; are you sure it’s not an issue with your python/conda installation?

Have you tried installing miniconda from scratch in your local cluster home directory?

The conda version of quspin uses precompiled CPP libraries so I guess any issues with glib are related to your local conda/python installation or environment.

Maybe it’s worthwhile to contact the cluster administrator?
