Cannot launch any game
Hi, after last update (2.17.0) games do not start. I tried with two different games so I think is an Heroic issue. I see the following error in log:
Failed to load Python shared library '/tmp/_MEIkbP9gZ/libpython3.11.so.1.0': dlopen: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libm.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.35' not found (required by /tmp/_MEIkbP9gZ/libpython3.11.so.1.0)
Epic/legendary log: https://0x0.st/8xuK.log
Heroic log: https://0x0.st/8xuZ.log
Thank you

Update to a more recent Ubuntu version or use the Flatpak version of Heroic

Maybe a silly question, but I need to uninstall the version I have before installing the Flatpak version?
They're isolated, so you don't have to uninstall it. I would still recommend uninstalling it though, having two Heroic versions installed could end up being confusing

ok, today I have uninstalled the .deb and installed the Flatpak.
I checked that the games are installed and also the .config/heroic files still there. But when I open heroic my configuration is gone (no hidden games, installed games appear as uninstalled, no history of downloads etc)
How can I tell heroic that configuration files and games are there?

Perfect, thank you so much! The only think that heroic did not seem to recognize was the proton version I had downloaded, so I "downloaded" it again and now the game works.
I know I should update Ubuntu but this change fom .deb to Flatpak was easier and faster 😅 Thanks again
