kdenlive-24.02.0_A-x86_64.AppImage doesn't work on porteus 5.01 ( slackware 15 based distr)

Hi
I would like to run the apps image Kdenlive kdenlive-23.08.5-x86_64.AppImage but I got

guest@porteus:~$ '/home/guest/Downloads/kdenlive-23.08.5-x86_64.AppImage' 
/tmp/.mount_kdenligWus3m/AppRun.wrapped: /usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.30' not found (required by /tmp/.mount_kdenligWus3m/usr/bin/../lib/libicuuc.so.74)

althought usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6 is here

guest@porteus:~$ '/home/guest/Desktop/kdenlive-23.08.5-x86_64.AppImage'
/tmp/.mount_kdenli83dJCz/AppRun.wrapped: /usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.30' not found (required by /tmp/.mount_kdenli83dJCz/usr/bin/../lib/libicuuc.so.74)
guest@porteus:~$ whereis libstdc++.so.6
libstdc++.so.6: /usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6

So I tried kdenlive-24.02.0_A-x86_64.AppImage
but it doesn’t foud neither /usr/lib64/libgcc_s.so.1 neither /usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6

guest@porteus:~$ '/home/guest/Downloads/kdenlive-24.02.0_A-x86_64.AppImage'

althought they are here

guest@porteus:~$ whereis libstdc++.so.6
libstdc++.so.6: /usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6
guest@porteus:~$ locate libstdc++.so.6
/usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6
/usr/lib64/libstdc++.so.6.0.29
guest@porteus:~$ whereis libgcc_s.so.1
libgcc_s.so.1: /usr/lib64/libgcc_s.so.1
guest@porteus:~$ locate libgcc_s.so.1
/usr/lib64/libgcc_s.so.1

How can I run kdenlive app image on my system?

I have the same problem, Appimage on Linux Mint 20.3 does not start, same error messages as above.
“GLIBCXX_3.4.29” and “GCC_12.0.0” not found.
I thought, the Appimage has no requirements (according to the documentation:
" Kdenlive on Linux[¶]
Kdenlive can be installed on non-KDE Desktops without any issues.

Packages: Minimum Ubuntu 22.04 for PPA. AppImage, Snap or Flatpak have no such minimal requirements."

Any ideas how to make the appimage work?

Kdenlive 23.08.2 released

Hi, Since I haven’t seen anyone else post the resolution to this yet, but lots of people banging their heads against it: I assume it’s related to the updates to the kde build farm that were mentioned around the time of the 23.08.2 release. The missing GLIBCXX symbols are because that release’s appimage was built with a newer libc than had been used previously and that ships with Debian 11 and derived distro releases. You’ll need to update to Debian 12 to use this appimage. HTH, Ron

kdenlive-23.08.3-x86_64.AppImage not working either

Yes, this is very likely going to be true for all future releases unless the build environment is downgraded, or whatever is generating code in the appimage which uses symbols from a libstdc++ release later than the one in Debian 11 et. al. stops doing that (and both those things are most probably Backward Steps in the Overall Scheme Of Things). It’s not a “bug” in kdenlive introduced by the kdenlive developers, or likely one they can “fix” in kdenlive - it’s an artifact of building the appimag…

The problem isn’t that you’re missing libstdc++.so.6, it’s that your distro has an ancient version which is missing symbols the Appimage needs.

You either need to update your distro, or use an older appimage.

Thank you very much for that fast answer.
Not exactly what I wanted to read ;-), but I wanted to upgrade to Mint 21 anyways. So it’s going to be a bit earlier.
